Intro

Dating back to the 13th century, the castle is now a museum covering eight centuries of regional architecture, history and culture, and sits amidst a wonderfully scenic panorama. The Gruyères region is also steeped in legends: You’ll soon be familiar with La Belle Luce, John the Cripple, the jester Chalamala and the heroic women of Gruyères who used their goats as weapons.

  •

The Castle of Gruyères has been standing proudly atop a verdant hill at the foot of the impressive Fribourg Pre-Alps since the 13th century. 

These days, the mediaeval fortress houses prestigious collections that bear witness to its long and eventful history. Visitors to the castle will embark on a journey through the ages and discover its many amazing treasures: the precious mediaeval stained glass and the capes of the knights; the wall hangings, which the bailiffs commissioned under the Ancien Régime; and the decoration of the Knight’s Room, which was created in the 19th century by a colony of passionate artists.

Temporary exhibitions complement the historical and artistic heritage, revealing a new side to the castle with every visit.
