Car to FIFA Museum Zurich - No Deposit Rental

Getting to the FIFA Museum Zurich by Rental Car

The FIFA Museum sits at Seestrasse 27, right on the western shoreline of Lake Zurich in the Enge district. It is one of the city's most distinctive cultural landmarks, celebrating the global history of football across three immersive floors. Arriving by Zurich car hire gives you the flexibility to combine your museum visit with a drive along the lake, a stop in Bahnhofstrasse, or a day trip into the Swiss countryside - all on your own schedule and at your own pace.

What to Expect at the FIFA World Football Museum

Opened in 2016, the FIFA Museum spans four floors and roughly 3,500 square metres of exhibition space. The permanent collection traces the history of football from its grassroots origins to the modern World Cup era, featuring original trophies, golden boots, match programmes and interactive installations. Whether you are a lifelong supporter or a first-time visitor, the museum delivers a genuinely engaging experience that goes well beyond memorabilia display.

With a rent a car Zurich booking in hand, you can arrive early before the crowds, linger over the exhibitions at your own pace, and continue your Zurich day without relying on public transport timetables. The museum is open Tuesday to Sunday and closes on Mondays.
