    Lion Castle (Pleigne JU)
    In 1956, CMS acquired the privately owned historic estate Löwenburg in Pleigne in the canton of Jura, near the French border. With over 150 hectares of forest and 150 hectares of agricultural land (mainly meadows and pastures), it is the largest estate of the foundation. In 1974, the Löwenburg was the first large-scale enterprise in northwestern Switzerland to move from dairy cattle to suckler cow husbandry.
    In the meantime, in addition to agricultural production, various school programs and numerous activities to protect and promote biodiversity of plants and animals have taken place. For example, as part of an ecological networking project, flowery meadows were created, hedges were maintained or forest edges were ecologically enhanced through care measures.
    Since the beginning of 2017, Daniel Leimgruber has been the lessee of the Löwenburg farm.
    With very nice little museum in the former dairy of the estate
