The campus has several exhibition spaces dedicated to the Art/Science dialogue, architecture, the History of Information Technology and scientific instruments.
EPFL also holds a collection of 224 old scientific instruments dating from 1775 to 1960 that can be seen in the Cubotron building of the UNIL.
Sculptures by artists, sometimes gigantic, are also part of the campus’ architecture and history.
The Archives de la Construction Moderne is the most important collection of architectural drawings in French-speaking Switzerland for research, teaching and scientific dissemination.
The exhibition “The first EPFL buildings” takes the form of a series of kiosks scattered on the upper terraces of the school’s first buildings, as well as a virtual counterpart composed of Internet pages accessible by QR code.
