Castle Courtyard

The castle was built around 1240, with a tower at each corner and surrounded by moats. Its dungeon was the last refuge for locals in the event of an attack. The castle houses the Vitromusée, the Swiss Museum of Stained Glass and Glass Arts. Unique in the world, its collection illustrates the history of glass, with gems from the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, Art Nouveau, and contemporary creations.
