Default Re: Swiss castles

hi there,

Actually, Chillon Castle is located on the banks of Lake Geneva, and it is one of the most popular Swiss castles.

Not only you can marvel at its beautiful exterior but you are able to go underground to view the cavernous underbelly of the castle, where prisoners were kept.

At Chillon Castle you can explore the halls in the castle, where the Savoys, and other residents throughout history, held balls and feasts, and you also have access to the chapel, bedrooms, courtyards and defenses area where sentries monitored the sea.
