Nice place, views are really great and the museum pieces are interesting. It's all in French, however. Also a small gift shop with lots of books.

Dante, Dante all over! Extraordinary exhibition of Dante, his Divina Commedia, books, drawings, comics (!), translations and literary references. Worth a visit, especially for Dante lovers.
From a passionate Dante collector, Martin Bodmer.
I was so impressed, that I did not take any pictures inside the museum.
Furthermore, giant books and the smallest books you can imagine. Very recommendable.
The Dante exhibition has been extended until 2023.

The museum has an important collection from diferente periods of the history of humanity, and also a space dedicated for temporary exibithions. The library itself is not opened to the public.

Amazing hidden gem in the Cologny neighborhood of Geneva. Beautiful grounds and breathtaking views of Lake Geneva are free, and the entrance fee for the library/exhibition space (which is all below ground and feels like a Bond villain's secret vault) is more than worth it. The jaw-dropping collection includes beautiful artist books (Picasso, Dali, Miro, etc.), historic atlases from around the world, handwritten letters (by titans like Galileo), original music scores, and countless first editions of fiction and nonfiction alike. It's the perfect place to spend an hour relaxing and enjoying the views, or to spend the entire day absorbing all of the luscious details that thousands of talented writers, artists, mapmakers, typesetters, bookbinders, etc. have put into these fabulous works that hold the thoughts, hopes and dreams of humanity's last few thousand years.
