Château de Chillon is located on a small island in Lake Geneva close to the shore.

The castle has been the residence of the dukes of Savoy, and it is open as a museum today.
Lausanne is the fourth largest Swiss city, and it is stunningly beautifully located on the northern shore of Lake Geneva. The lake is almost like a sea with alpine peaks as a breathtaking backdrop to the city, and this gives a special atmosphere together with the surrounding vineyards and the cozy atmosphere that you will experience everywhere in the city center.

Fribourg is a city located on the river Saane on the cultural border between German and French Switzerland. The city was founded as Freiburg in 1157 by Berthold IV. von Zähringen. The city grew significantly from the 13th century with trade and production as contributing factors. After various affiliations, Friborg became a member of the Swiss Confederation in 1481. Later, the city became important for the Counter-Reformation in Switzerland.
Today you can experience Fribourg’s old town, which is one of the largest and best preserved in the country. The medieval center lies as an atmospheric area with a location on a peninsula surrounded on three sides by the Saane. The architecture in the old town primarily comes from the Gothic period, which means that much was built before the 16th century.
