Permanent house of Compesières, occupies a special place among the castles of the region due to its role as Commander Johanniter. Of the original ensemble, only the residential wing has survived. The church and economic buildings were replaced by new buildings in the Middle Ages, and the outer walled enclosure that once protected the entire building complex has disappeared today.

Quiet view of the fields and the town. Be prepared to walk past tall grass during the warmer season. Longer pants are recommended as there could be ticks.

In the wide and more fertile plain between Geneva and St-Julien, various castles and permanent houses were built in the high and late Middle Ages. The sovereign center of the area was the Saconnez d'Arve castle, of which only a round tower stands today, probably the corner tower of an originally much larger complex. A kilometer further to the south is the Compesières permanent house, which occupies a special position among the castles in the area due to its role as a Johanniter commander. Only the residential wing has survived from the original overall complex. The church and the economic buildings were replaced by new buildings in the Middle Ages, and the outer fortified wall that once protected the entire building complex has disappeared today.
