About
The Queen: The Studio Experience in Montreux is a one‑stop museum that transports visitors back to the world‑famous Mountain Studios where the band recorded seven iconic albums from 1978 to 1995. Housed inside the historic Casino Barrière de Montreux, the exhibition showcases original recording instruments, costumes, handwritten lyrics, and memorabilia—including Freddie Mercury’s final song recordings in the Made‑in‑Heaven room. Visitors can walk through the unchanged control room and even remix Queen tracks on a reproduction Neve console. Entry is free, so the museum offers an intimate, immersive glimpse into the band’s creative process without a cost barrier.
