The “crazy” thing about the Grand Chalet: It has a whopping 113 windows! It is privately owned and cannot be visited. But you can also get an idea of its size from the outside!

Anyone who visits the Grand Chalet should also pay a visit to the Chapelle Balthus - a five-minute walk away. Various works by the master and videos can be seen there.
Entry is free.
