They formed the core of the collection around three themes: stuffing, mineralogy-geology-botany and antiquities. Like most of Switzerland&#8217;s early museum institutions, the Mus\u00e9e de Sainte-Croix reflected its era, characterized by scientific emulation and the beginnings of popularization.  <\/p><p> <\/p><p>Until 1908, the Society had no premises in which to display its objects, which were then kept in various locations in the village, notably in the attic of the fire pump building in the Rue Neuve. Eventually, a purpose-built museum and library building was inaugurated on Avenue des Alpes. Inspired by the <em>Heimatstil<\/em> style, it was designed by the Lausanne architects Jules-H. and Henri Verrey.   <\/p><p> <\/p><p>Although the Mus\u00e9e de Sainte-Croix survived the turmoil of the first half of the <sup>20th<\/sup> century, it nevertheless became obsolete. The Society experienced several difficult years, despite initiatives to modernize the institution: the introduction of temporary exhibitions, membership of the Association des int\u00e9r\u00eats de Sainte-Croix (1965), and the change of name to &#8220;Mus\u00e9e des arts et des sciences&#8221; (1985). From 1988 to 1994, the museum closed for lack of visitors. The Society&#8217;s members then became involved in temporary exhibitions designed in conjunction with CIMA.   <\/p><p> <\/p><p>In 1995, the Museum Association set about reopening the museum. A new museography for the permanent rooms was put in place, recreating an &#8220;old-fashioned&#8221; atmosphere thanks in particular to display cases donated by the Mus\u00e9e cantonal de zoologie de Lausanne. Reopened in November 2000, the institution offered a three-floor tour:  <\/p><ul><li>On the first floor, visitors could discover temporary exhibitions;<\/li><li>On the second floor, the permanent exhibition room was devoted to local history and archaeology.<\/li><li>On the second floor, objects from the natural sciences and ethnography, as well as the Jaccard collection of paintings, revealed the variety of the museum&#8217;s collections.<\/li><li>Finally, the stairwell was filled with works by painters from the \u00c9cole de Sainte-Croix.<\/li><\/ul><p> <\/p><p>The Mus\u00e9e des arts et des sciences housed almost 9,000 objects and documents illustrating a variety of fields, including archaeology, fine arts, local history, ethnography and the natural sciences. The Society, which later became an association, has always been run solely by volunteers. <\/p><p> <\/p><p>As part of the merger of the museums of Sainte-Croix, the Mus\u00e9e des arts et des sciences closed its doors to the public in the spring of 2022. The Association was dissolved in April 2023.   <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1810\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6c9aac6 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6c9aac6\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1810\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-45c8bd1 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"45c8bd1\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-49d79be elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"49d79be\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" src=\"https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/480334430_1234516392012484_7144069540296570638_n-300x199.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-3115\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/480334430_1234516392012484_7144069540296570638_n-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/480334430_1234516392012484_7144069540296570638_n.jpg 545w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">The Museum of Arts and Sciences building on Avenue des Alpes<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e31006b elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"e31006b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1810\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-458ffad e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"458ffad\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0bdb774 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0bdb774\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/460631969_3335055163292891_2848128835455298765_n-199x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-3114\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/460631969_3335055163292891_2848128835455298765_n-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/460631969_3335055163292891_2848128835455298765_n.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">The Science Room on the second floor of the Museum of Arts and Sciences<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<details id=\"e-n-accordion-item-1811\" class=\"e-n-accordion-item\" >\n\t\t\t\t<summary class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title\" data-accordion-index=\"2\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"e-n-accordion-item-1811\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-header'><div class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title-text\"> The Baud Museum -

Three brothers, Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric (1915-1998) aka Fr\u00e9dy, Robert (1917-2010) and Auguste (1924-1973), carried on their father&#8217;s tradition of making music boxes and farming. In 1946, their association gave birth to the Baud Fr\u00e8res company, which produced and repaired mechanical music boxes. Little by little, the restoration, purchase and sale of these musical pieces became the main activity of the siblings, who received pieces from all over the world.   <\/p><p> <\/p><p>In 1953, Fr\u00e9dy Baud met Professor Alfred Chapuis (1880-1958), who was preparing a book entitled &#8220;Histoire de la bo\u00eete \u00e0 musique&#8221; to accompany the &#8220;Montres et Bijoux&#8221; exhibition at the Mus\u00e9e d&#8217;art et d&#8217;histoire de Gen\u00e8ve. Fr\u00e9dy was invited to participate in writing the technical parts of the book, and then to present mechanical instruments in Geneva. To do this, the Bauds had to restore numerous pieces. After the exhibition, and in view of the enthusiastic response from the public, they finally decided to found a museum dedicated to blade music, mechanical instruments and other automata. This institution was one of the first of its kind in the world. Housed in the Baud brothers&#8217; barn in L&#8217;Auberson, it quickly became a great success.     <\/p><p> <\/p><p>The collection consisted of music boxes, automata, station music, animated pictures, orchestrions, barrel organs and more. The collection was displayed in a room open to the public only under the guidance of a guide who demonstrated the various objects. <\/p><p> <\/p><p>The attraction of these pieces led to numerous loans for exhibitions and events in Switzerland and abroad, including the Shopping Centre in Spreitenbach (Aargau), the H\u00f4tel de Ville in Lausanne, the Swiss National Museum in Zurich, the Lyon Organ Festival, the Porte de la Suisse in Paris, and the Hankyu store in Japan.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>In 1973, the Baud brothers decided to split their activities. Henceforth, the Baud Fr\u00e8res SA company would devote itself solely to the manufacture, purchase and sale of tuning forks, as well as operating a bar turning and small mechanical workshop. The other company, Mus\u00e9e Baud SA, was to manage the museum.  <\/p><p> <\/p><p>This split did not, however, facilitate the running of the museum, which since its creation had been managed solely by the Baud family. Despite the commitment of Arlette Baud, daughter of Fr\u00e9dy, and Michel Bourgoz, son of Madeleine Baud (1914-?), the eldest sister of the siblings, the question of a successor to the family was problematic. Thanks to cantonal support in 1995, however, the museum&#8217;s future was assured for a good twenty years, and in 2000, it even added a second exhibition room devoted to organs and orchestrions.  <\/p><p> <\/p><p>In 2010, Arlette Baud and Michel Bourgoz joined forces to consider merging the three museums of Sainte-Croix &#8211; L&#8217;Auberson. This led to a fundraising campaign to purchase the Baud collection. The success of this operation in 2019 was the first decisive step towards the creation of a single museum on Sainte-Croix. Now governed by CIMA, the Mus\u00e9e Baud will remain open until the end of 2023.   <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1811\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-03b3391 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"03b3391\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1811\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-277ccaa e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"277ccaa\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-78f1b5a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"78f1b5a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ch_croix_baud_aussen-300x225.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-3118\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ch_croix_baud_aussen-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ch_croix_baud_aussen-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ch_croix_baud_aussen.jpg 933w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">The Mus\u00e9e Baud building at Grand-Rue 23, L'Auberson<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-da0ed7e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"da0ed7e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ch_croix_baud_saal1-300x225.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-3117\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ch_croix_baud_saal1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ch_croix_baud_saal1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ch_croix_baud_saal1.jpg 933w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">The music box and automaton room<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<details id=\"e-n-accordion-item-1812\" class=\"e-n-accordion-item\" >\n\t\t\t\t<summary class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title\" data-accordion-index=\"3\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"e-n-accordion-item-1812\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-header'><div class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title-text\"> Center international de la m\u00e9canique d'art (CIMA) - 1985-2022 <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-icon'>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-opened' ><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-minus\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M416 208H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h384c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-closed'><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-plus\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M416 208H272V64c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32h-32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v144H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h144v144c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h32c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32V304h144c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1812\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-29893c6 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"29893c6\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1812\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5f8c699 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"5f8c699\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fcd124e elementor-widget__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fcd124e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The creation of CIMA came at a particularly difficult economic time for the town of Sainte-Croix. The closure of two major companies, Thorens and Paillard, at the end of the <sup>20th<\/sup> century had resulted in several hundred people becoming unemployed. <\/p><p> <\/p><p>In the 1970s and 1980s, the economic climate did not improve. Nevertheless, a strong interest in the fields of music boxes, clocks and automata encouraged a group of enthusiasts to found a Center of Competence aimed at preserving local heritage and revitalizing know-how through mandates or the installation of companies. To give a framework to this objective, a new name was coined: art mechanics, which now encompasses all the principles, techniques and know-how involved in creating a work of art with a mechanical movement.    <\/p><p> <\/p><p>Governed by a Foundation, the institution moved into the former buildings of Hermes Precisa International. Here, several thousand objects were brought together, donated or loaned by numerous enthusiasts of Sainte-Croix&#8217;s craft and industrial history.   <\/p><p> <\/p><p>CIMA offered temporary exhibitions and, above all, guided tours with demonstrations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1812\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-39b0de9 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"39b0de9\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1812\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1792b6e e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1792b6e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e1d71db elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e1d71db\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"210\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Le-CIMA-centre-international-de-la-mecanique-d-art-210x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-3119\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Le-CIMA-centre-international-de-la-mecanique-d-art-210x300.jpg 210w, https:\/\/mumaps.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Le-CIMA-centre-international-de-la-mecanique-d-art.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 210px) 100vw, 210px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">The CIMA building at Rue de l'Industrie 2, Sainte-Croix<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1812\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-987e7d6 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"987e7d6\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-142773e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"142773e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f99b461 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"f99b461\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7966a71 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7966a71\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1fdfd41 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1fdfd41\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">building<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ea5cd8b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"ea5cd8b\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66f1597 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"66f1597\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b831a00 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b831a00\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-49ba269 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"49ba269\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>MuMAPS is housed in a historic building built in 1900 by the Paillard company.  <\/strong><\/p><p><strong> <\/strong><\/p><p>Founded in 1814 in Sainte-Croix, the company started out manufacturing music boxes, before moving on to phonographs.
