The Old Arsenal is right in Geneva's Old Town.It was formerly a granary built in the 17th century and later used as a military storehouse until 1877. Under the arch ways, you will find two large military canons, which were prevously used to defend Geneva's city walls. Behind pn the walls you can admire three beautiful frescoes, the work of Alexandre Cingria, depicting key periods in Geneva’s history.
