Vevey is a town on the northeastern shore of Lake Geneva. Pile dwellings dating back to the 4th century BC have been found on the territory of the town. Vevey is connected with the municipalities in the north of Lake Geneva as far as Lausanne by passenger boats. Buildings worth seeing are the church of Saint Martin, the town hall from the 18th century and the old town with former patrician houses. A lakeside promenade with typical houses of the seaside architecture is a special highlight of the town. Vevey is located about seven km west of Montreux. Vevey's landmark is a fork, which was erected in the lake on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Alimentarium.

“The castle was much bigger inside than expected, with amazing history and stunning artefacts. It was a great time of year to visit, not too crowded, and the whole experience was interesting. Walking where people walked hundreds of years ago felt humbling.”
“What a great museum. Full of so much history. The medals, the torches, the sports kit. Soooo cool”
“Great weather, beautiful hike”
“Great. We thought we would spend 1.5 to 2 hours with my 4-year-old daughter, but we ended up staying all afternoon.”
“Really great visit, well organized and interesting.”
“An immersive exhibition that touches the soul. Every detail has been thoughtfully crafted, staying true to Chaplin's humanism. You feel connected to his world from the moment the film starts at the cinema, before gradually exploring each theme of his vast body of work. A body of work that rises above human foolishness through laughter, poetry, beauty, dreams, and unconditional love. Universal.”
