The Many Faces of Theodore Beza – 1519-1605

To celebrate the 500th anniversary of his birth in 2019, the MIR presents unique items tracing Theodore Beza’s impressive career.

« This museum has a lot of details, stories and artifacts. It goes through the whole history of the Reformation and helps situate Geneva in the story of Christianity. The little audio guides are great included additions that provide rich historical context. »
