Founded in 1824, it is the oldest of the Swiss horology schools. It was first managed by the city of Geneva and then by the canton of Geneva. For many years, it also administered the awarding of the Geneva Seal.
New chapter
At the end of 2023, the Geneva School of Horology began a new chapter by moving to Plan-les-Ouates — at the heart of the Geneva watchmaking industry. This move made it possible to expand the premises, increase the number of apprenticeship places and offer students a modern learning environment. Being directly integrated into a dynamic watchmaking hub, the school now offers its students more opportunities to immerse themselves in the professional world and develop hands-on experience closer to the industry.
