I fell in love with this castle, it's the oldest one that can be visited in Switzerland, and it's also so rich in history…(it's amazing what can be done with Photoshop with an unfocused picture).
This is my 3rd visit, but this time we took a guided tour. I say "we", 'cause my nephew Yoan (15 yrs old) came to spend the week-end with me. So after seeing 5 of the 6 Star wars movies in two days, we went to get a touch with the past…
This castle it's famous in the world after a poem written by Lord Byron "The prisoner of Chillon" based on the true story of Bonivard, a prisoner during the independence fight of the Republic of Geneva.
Just a couple of pictures of the end of the tour, before he had to catch the train to go back home…
