Description
With this ticket you can independently explore the Gothic cellar vaults, ornate rooms and the beautiful chapel.
A fascinating visit awaits you in the most visited historical building in Switzerland - Chillon Castle on Lake Geneva!
Travel to Chillon either individually by car, by boat from Montreux or Vevey, by train or on foot from Montreux.
Chillon Castle is the most famous castle in the area - and with nearly 350,000 visitors annually, the most visited historic building in Switzerland. As you walk through the castle's thick walls and richly decorated rooms, you'll feel as if you've been transported to times long past. The Gothic cellar vault and the chapel are particularly worth seeing
You will spend as long as you want in the castle, looking at the old walls, a large collection of armor, weapons and everyday objects, and thanks to the free museum brochure you will learn a lot of exciting things about the rich history of the castle. We recommend about two hours for your stay.
