ヴィラール・ル・テロワールの洞窟・トップ4

A Savoyard fortified house from the end of the 15th century, it is today a private house restored as far as possible and furnished in 16th-17th century style.

The Tour Ronde in Orbe is a historic tower dating back to 1233 and is part of the old castle of the city. This tower offers a breathtaking 360° view over the rooftops of Orbe, the Jura mountains and the Alps12. From the top of the tower you can enjoy a panoramic view of the surrounding landscapes, including the vast plain of the Orbe and the vineyards of the Côtes de l’Orbe.

The horse museum in the outbuildings shows horse-drawn vehicles and highlights the role of the horse and harness in warfare, in the circus, in hunting with greyhounds, etc.

This castle is located in a park above the village and dates back to the 11th century. It was renovated in the 15th and 16th centuries. In front of the living area with two round corner turrets there are two heavy square towers with aisles.

The old-fashioned but charming town of Orbe is located on a hill in a meander of the Orbe. From the Place du Marché, decorated by a fountain with a standard bearer (1753), a small street leads to the reformed church from the 15th-16th century (naves with interesting keystones) and further to the terrace of the former castle, which offers a beautiful view of the lower city and the Orbe valley.

The old town, which consists of a lower and an upper part, is really kitschy and beautiful. Small shops, many restaurants, colorful facades and the castle characterize Orbe.
