A Changing World: Geneva and World War I

This November 11 marks the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I.  To mark this anniversary and look back at Geneva’s participation in the war to end all wars, the Historical Society has opened the exhibit, A Changing World: Geneva and World War I.  The exhibit examines the war’s outbreak, Geneva before the war, the mustering of Company B, life on the homefront, and the aftermath of war.  With a city population comparable to today’s, 1,127 Genevans served in the war and 38 died in the service.  A Changing World: Geneva and World War I will be up in the lower level gallery through April 2019.
