Château Chillon

Château Chillon on Lake Geneva

The Château Chillon opens its gates - enter into one of Europe's most fascinating castles! This architectural jewel is located in one of the most beautiful places imaginable - between Lake Geneva and the Alps. It's a place that encourages dreams and fantasy. Many artists, such as Rousseau, Hugo, Delacroix and Courbet drew inspiration from this Château.

Choose your tour: alone or in a group, free, guided or with a specific theme. Each hall in this ancient building tells the tale of the castle in living colour.

This residence is wonderful for events and parties. It offers amazing facilities and is an ideal place for private events. Enjoy candle light dinners, birthday celebrations, wine tasting and cultural events...

And to make the event especially exciting for guests, the Château Chillon also has a something special in store for children in elementary school: the dragon Drako, the castle mascot, will take kids on a tour of the castle. With his quiz games, he makes learning about the Middle Ages interactive and fun.

Your children are sure to love the tour - filled with exciting stories that they will tell over and over. Our children's tours fascinate young and old!
