Château Mercier

Mercier Castle, originally called Pradegg Castle, stands magnificently and sophisticatedly on a hill in the town of Sierre (French: Sierre). For half a century, the castle served mainly as a summer residence for the Mercier family until its donation to the canton of Valais in 1991. Since then, as required by the conditions of the donation, the castle and the adjoining park are mainly used for public, cultural and artistic purposes.
