Unfortunately not open to visitors - but still an impressive sight from the outside.

A must-have when visiting Thonon les Bains. The château can be visited. The tour takes you through the rooms, the former moat and the castle garden. If you are a little water lover, you can cool off with your kids beforehand or afterwards in the nearby seaside resort.

Even though the funicular ride isn't free, it's definitely worth it. With the ticket you can also take an hour's bus ride. The views are fantastic. It's truly an experience!

A ride on the funicular is worthwhile. From the top you have a wonderful view of Lake Geneva and the port of Thonon-les-Bains. There are seats on the train, but also plenty of standing room. With the ticket you buy you can also use the buses in Thonon-les-Bains for a day.

Very nice grounds from the outside, dogs are also prohibited in the park

The castle was built in the 10th century on ruins of Roman origin called Ladrinum. The location chosen for its construction was not fortuitous, a real strategic point in terms of the extraordinary view it offered from the Swiss Alps to Fort l'Ecluse at the end of the Jura chain, and from there to Mont- White. It has had several owners, from the Counts of Allinges, to the Counts of Savoie, then to the Lavanchy, Détraz, De Franlieu families and finally the current owners, the De Stoutz family. The restoration work of the castle undertaken by Mr. W. De Stoutz, made it possible to fit out the castle in residence as well as a part in offices It is now private property and cannot be visited.

Beautiful castle worth a visit and in a nice natural setting where you can take small walks.

At the end of the 19th century, the stone of the Bastille was inserted into the old wall of the Château de Thonon, at the request of the Inspector of Waters and Forests Jean Blanchard. We can still read the inscriptions "Palloy", "I Janvier" and "Thonon".
