Somewhat off topic, but CERN has a fantastic science museum attached to it that I had the privilege of visiting last summer. There is of course Tim Berners-Lee's NeXT workstation, but also so much more. It is also the only science museum I've visited that addresses topics in cyberinfrastructure such as serving out massive amounts of data. (I personally get interested when I see old StorageTek tapes lol.) The more traditional science displays are also great. Check it out if you are ever in the Geneva area. It is an easy bus ride to get out there.

Don’t forget to visit the gift shop too.
They don’t have an online store so it’s the only place to get CERN ‘gears’.
You can easily overspend there for gifts your friends and family will appreciate (if they know and like about CERN and its missions).

What's funny is that I just visited the museum a few months ago, and am coincidentally wearing a CERN hat I got there while reading the post and comments. I also highly recommend checking out the museum!
