Chaplin's World, Cinema museum in Corsier-sur-Vevey, Switzerland.
The museum spans across the Manoir de Ban estate, featuring exhibits about Charlie Chaplin through interactive displays, original artifacts, and reconstructed film sets.
Charlie Chaplin resided at the Manoir de Ban from 1952 until 1977, and in 2016 the estate transformed into a museum dedicated to his life.
The museum presents the progression of early cinema through exhibitions of costumes, props, and personal items that belonged to the renowned filmmaker.
Visitors can reach the museum by taking bus line 212 from Vevey station, with the stop located directly at the entrance.
The site maintains Chaplin's private projection room where he watched his films and those of other directors during his final years.

Statues of film and television characters are displayed in streets, parks, and airports of many cities around the world. These bronze and metal monuments honor figures who have made a mark in the history of cinema. From the giant sculpture of Marilyn Monroe in Palm Springs, recreating the famous scene from "Seven Year Itch," to the 4-meter statue of Charlie Chaplin installed outside the Corsier-sur-Vevey museum in Switzerland, these installations allow visitors to explore film legends' legacies. Some locations concentrate several of these sculptures. At Leicester Square, London's cinema district, nine bronze statues depict characters like Harry Potter, Mary Poppins, Indiana Jones, Bugs Bunny, and Mr. Bean. Hong Kong’s Avenue of Stars features a statue of Bruce Lee in a fighting stance. In Wellington, New Zealand, the airport hosts a large-scale Gollum from The Lord of the Rings. These landmarks provide photo opportunities and encourage exploration of the cities where they are located.
