Why go
This record is the museum, which Wikidata keeps apart from the museum building (a separate item), and not the IOC headquarters. Lausanne Tourisme's page says the IOC founded the museum in 1993 on the banks of Lake Geneva and that it was completely renovated in 2013, and that its permanent exhibition presents the origins of the Games, the competitions and athletes' equipment, alongside temporary exhibitions and grounds with works of art. The same page links to ticket sales for the museum.
