The museum (Le Musée International de la Réforme (MIR) in Geneva is dedicated to the Reformation and Protestantism in its historical and international dimension and context. After a renovation of two years, it has recently reopened.

The new MIR, modern and interactive, is situated in a symbolic and historical building, Maison Mallet, on the site of the former monastery of Saint-Pierre, where the citizens of Geneva decided on the Reformation in 1536.

The museum pays extensive attention to Geneva’s international role in the Reformation and one of its most important actors: John Calvin (1509-1564). His contemporaries, opponents and supporters are also featured.
