The FIFA Museum in Zurich showcases the achievements and journey of Spain's women's national football team, offering a captivating glimpse into their history.
The FIFA Museum in Zurich, the most populous city in Switzerland and the most expensive in the world, has recently unveiled a series of new exhibits that celebrate the growth and history of women's football.
One of the museum's latest additions is a pop-up exhibition focused on women’s football, which highlights Spain’s journey and their effort to avenge their loss in the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 final. This dedicated display offers a comprehensive look into Spain's recent history and impact in the sport.
Giovanni Marti, the deputy director of communication at the FIFA Museum, said, "We are thrilled to present this exhibition that showcases the growth and achievements of women's football. Spain's performance in the 2023 World Cup was truly remarkable, and we are excited to share their story with our visitors."
The exhibition also includes the cup of the Spanish women's national team from 2023, a significant achievement that reflects their success in women's football. Alongside this, visitors can find Jenni Hermoso's shirt, one of the objects displayed at the museum since 2023.
The museum also houses curiosities such as the peculiar goalkeeper's jersey used by the Swedish goalkeeper in the 2023 World Cup penalty shootout against the United States. All the shirts of the teams that have played in a women's World Cup are carefully preserved at the museum.
The museum's broader women’s football exhibitions celebrate the growth and history of the women's game, offering insightful context around Spain’s place within it. Visitors can expect interactive and immersive experiences related to both men’s and women’s football globally, with the Spanish women’s team’s 2023 World Cup achievements among the highlighted elements.
The exhibition also focuses on the origins of Swiss women's football, with the minutes of the first official match played by the Swiss women's national team on display. Maddli, the Euro 2025 mascot, pays tribute to Mado Boll, the first Swiss footballer. Balls from different editions of the women's World Cup are also preserved at the museum.
Females are treated exactly the same as males at the FIFA Museum, with the women's stands enjoying the same space and number of objects as the men's World Cups. The museum's greatest treasures in terms of Spain are not limited to any World Cup, and the Spanish women's football team has been breaking records in the world of football.
