On the Swiss Riviera, one hour drive from Geneva, an old castle on the lake.

Lovers of historic monuments will adore this medieval castle set in a stunning landscape.

Fortress, princely residence and prison all in one! Chillon Castle is a unique historical witness of its time. Visit its halls, rooms and basements, climb its towers or stroll along its ramparts and you'll be able to imagine life in the Middle Ages with yourself as Lord or Lady of the castle. This magical place, set as if in the lake, offers a grandiose vista of the Alps and the Swiss Riviera. Disembarking from a boat is a truly spectacular experience.
