Has this location been brought up in Lucie's forum, Khaos? One of Switzerland's official languages is French, so any players there might be in Lucie's forum.
Another of their official languages is German...has this location been brought up in Markus' forum?

This one is neat:

and it has a fake rock, I think.
Apparently there are lots of statues on the grounds. Statue D.P. . . . I wonder if D.P. is the subject, or the artist.

D.P. could stand for Dražen Petrović, a croation basketball player.
There is a statue of him in front of the Lausanne museum.

Ouch... Pickup failed! Here is the Message from my contact
Quote:
Hi Benjamin,
so yesterday evening I went to the Olympic museum park.
I also found the monument of Drazen Petrovic, but
couldn't find any envelope in or near the statue (I
carefully looked between each slice of the marble
thing)...and no fake stone within 10 meters around.
I also checked the bickers... nothing
And also an artwork that represents a swimmer but much
more looks like an artificial stone... and nothing
again
I also quickly checked all the statues in the park
(probably more than 20) to find any other clue, but
didn't really find something else.
Are the envelopes usually that well hidden... I didn't
dig a hole around the statue though. Or is it possible
that the envelope would have been picked up for any
reason ?
I'm sorry for you... if you have any other clue or
indication, tell me. I will be away from Lausanne for
a week starting on friday.
EnjoY!

PS: I uploaded pictures of the main spots I checked on
my profile pics, in the "Olympics" folder, so you can
have a look and maybe find some more clues.
These are the Pictures from his profile:
Statue DP-Plate
DP-Statue
Fake Stone?
Bikers Statue

Swimmer Stone Statue

I will send another person for looking to be sure there is nothing, but it looks like it has already been picked up...

No i dont think so.
none of these pictures look like i would have been looking for
i would have looked for either, those fake rock lights or the key holding rocks.
also the pics given dont look like they would be good hinding spots incase of bad weather . if i was a PM id find somwhere more protected

Fake rock sounds like some sort of key rock:
