EBIANUM Excavator Museum

The EBIANUM Baggermuseum in Fisibach, Switzerland, is a museum dedicated to the history of construction machinery and the Eberhard company, offering a journey through 100 years of excavator and construction machine history. Visitors can explore around 100 historical machines and vehicles, including a steam roller from 1928, and climb into real machines in the exhibition hall. The museum also features one of the world's largest model exhibitions with over 3,000 construction machine, truck and crane models, as well as an exhibition on the remediation of the hazardous waste landfill in Kölliken. Audio guides are available in German, English and French, and the museum hosts changing temporary exhibitions.
