Alpine garden

  • Botanic
  • Live plants

At Pont de Nant, our Alpine Garden offers visitors the opportunity to admire nearly 3,000 mountain plants from around the world. Himalayan species rub shoulders with those from our Alps, while plants from the high Andes flirt with flowers from the Jura. The Rocky Mountains neighbour the Caucasus, the Andes rub shoulders with the Japanese Alps, and the mountains of New Zealand lean on the Moroccan Atlas and the Arctic regions.

Cantonal Government Websites and PHP Security Vulnerabilities

Like many organizations around the world, the cantonal government uses PHP, a widely used programming language, on some of its websites and in some of its applications. In light of the recently disclosed and widely publicized security vulnerabilities, preventive measures have been implemented to strengthen the security of the affected systems.

The natureum.ch website has been secured and can be accessed. However, the palaisderumine.ch, espace-arlaud.vd.ch and mcah.ch websites are currently still offline. You can contact the teams by email: info.rumine@vd.ch for the Palais de Rumine and Espace Arlaud administration and mcah@vd.ch for the Cantonal Museum of Archaeology and History, or visit the website lausanne-musees.ch
