Musée de la Machine à Ecrire - Schreibmaschinenmuseum

1003 Lausanne, Svizzera (Waadt)

THE COLLECTION

The machines in the collection are perfectly maintained by Jacques Perrier and the enthusiasts he has trained.

The extensive collection includes more than 1,000 typewriters, 150 calculators and numerous accessories tracing the history of the office, as well as documentation, archives, advertisements, prototypes and tools. The museum also boasts a rich heritage of Paillard Hermes, which was the flagship of industry in northern Vaud for decades. Open to international production, it brings together legendary machines from the early days of industrial production (late 19th century), machines that left their mark on the 20th century through their use in offices or the home, and exceptional examples such as the Braille writing machines made in Lausanne for the Asile des aveugles. Finally, there are a number of items that recall their famous users: two Swissa Juniors that belonged respectively to Jean Anouilh and Egon Lauer, the Russian translator of Georges Simenon's correspondence, and the Olympia SG1 belonging to Madame Walt, French marathon typing champion in 1956.
