Model exchange: Even the little ones bring joy
WHERE TO MEET Once again this year, the last Sunday before Christmas at the Museum of Transport is an important day for model car collectors. But a visit to the popular Lucerne Model Car Exchange is not only worthwhile for them.
Initiated in 1981, the first Lucerne Bourse - at that time still called Toy Exchange - took place for the first time in the Hotel Anker and subsequently in the Hotel Union. From 1984, it was at home for many years in the Gersag Center in Emmenbrücke and received a lot of attention in neighboring countries due to its good connections to public and private transport.
Supraregional significance of the exhibition
The bourse has now been based at the Museum of Transport in Lucerne for 16 years. In all these years, the event has gradually developed into a pure model car exchange. A steadily increasing number of visitors testifies to this day to the high level of acceptance among the national public and international exhibitors.
Thus, the offer ranges from high-precision collector models in different sizes to old toys and model cars - for example, from Dinky Toys or Corgi Toys.
The bourse at the Museum of Transport Lucerne, Lidostrasse 5, will be open to collectors and enthusiasts on Sunday, December 18, from 9 to 11am. From 11am to 3pm it is also open to the public.
