A beautiful water castle - ChĆ¢teau de Chillon is a medieval castle on Lake Geneva in western Switzerland. Located in the town of Veto near Montreux, Wau, Switzerland. In the evening. The view under the sunset is especially beautiful!

Amazing! - Wonderful medieval castle located on a rock on Lake Geneva in Veytaux, near Montreux. It is beautiful and you can visit many environments, some have been left as they were, in others there are Collections of trunks (many and beautiful), weapons and armor, in others, teaching and study tools. You can also see the patrol paths with beautiful views. Recommendation to visit it in the late afternoon, to see beautiful sunsets over the lake!

Castle of the Middle Ages - Castle with ancient origins. Well renovated and therefore you can visit in full from the dungeons to the keep. It is situated in a beautiful location on a rock on the lake. In my opinion it is one of the well preserved medieval castles. Audio Guide Recommendation .Congratulations to the organization.

Great Castle to visit in Montreux - This is a great seaside castle to explore. It doesn't look like it would be that big from the outside, but it has a lot to explore. I couldn't imagine running though the halls to defend the keep from intruders wearing a full chain mail and suit of armor. It was a cool experience, and it has been very well maintained.

Impressive - Everyone knows this defensive castle by sight, but a visit will reveal the richness of its history, through many courtyards, halls, roundabouts and towers. Atmosphere, especially in the basements flush with the water... We have given up taking audio guides, which cost 6.- per person. It ends up being more expensive than the "family" ticket... too bad!

Cool castle in an excellent location. - A decent sized castle on the shores of Lake Geneva. The location is very beautiful. They allow you to walk thru some of the rooms in the castle that give you some historical understanding of the castle and its owners. It is free with the Swiss pass.

A true plunge into the Middle Ages - The place is wonderful, the castle breathtaking. Visiting the different rooms allows you to see life at different periods, interesting models, panels for children but also the oldest. Only one downside, the Audio Guide which has my sense brings little to the visit. If you pass in the area it is to do!

Great castle where there is much to discover. - We took part in a free and very interesting German-speaking tour. Duration approx. 50min. After that we explored the castle again over 1h on our own. It's great that you can move freely almost anywhere. On-site parking is limited and during rush hour it is difficult to get a parking space, so allow a bit more time if you have booked a guided tour. In fine weather you can also explore the shore nicely. Our kids 6+11 thought it was great. The Online Booking Referral worked perfectly. šŸ‘šŸ½
