Romantic and authentic, the visit is tailor-made. Explore the fortress with the help of an explanatory leaflet or an audioguide - available to rent on site or to download from App Store or Google Play Store. Children aged 6 to 10 receive a treasure map at the entrance. An unusual itinerary and videos on touch-screen terminals take you back in time to the Dukes of Savoy. Throughout the year, Switzerland's most visited historic monument also organizes exhibitions, shows and concerts. A visit is a must!
