Ice Treasure Chamber

The Treasure Trove of Ice: What Ice Tells Us About Our Past

Bones, shoes, tools, pollen, or dust—glacier ice is a unique archive of the past. The new exhibition at the Lucerne Glacier Garden shows what glaciers reveal about the climate, the environment, and people—and what stories are stored in the ice. “Ice: A Treasure Trove” brings together the two fields of glacier archaeology and ice core research in a single exhibition for the first time.
