Between 1840 and 1846, a building on the Grand Place, on the banks of the lake, was transformed into one of the most important neo-Gothic buildings in Vaud and even a pioneering work for the whole of Switzerland. The Château de l'Aile stands on the site of the former Halles de Vevey which, by consonance, were the origin of the Aile, the sign of the inn belonging to this commercial building from 1545. The property was sold by the municipality to Adam Chastelain in 1680. The building was then rebuilt as a turreted pleasure castle - with a wider tower on the axis of the north facade.

The Château de Chillon is located on the shores of Lake Geneva, near Montreux in Veytaux, Switzerland. This medieval and romantic castle is a precious historical jewel that has been enthroned on its rocky island for almost a millennium. The castle is located on the eastern shore of Lake Geneva, in a picturesque spot between Montreux and Veytaux. It has become famous thanks to literary works such as “La Nouvelle Héloïse” by Jean-Jacques Rousseau and “The Prisoner of Chillon” by Lord Byron. The castle dates back to the thirteenth century and is one of the best preserved medieval castles in Europe. In addition to its historical significance, the Château de Chillon also offers wonderful exhibitions, animations and events. You can also rent rooms for special occasions.

The wine museum in the castle is very well done. I recommend really good shoes for the hike.

From the late 11th century onward, there is also evidence of a noble d'Aigle family, who built a castle here. Their property passed to the Lords of Saillon in the 13th century. The most important building in Aigle is Aigle Castle, located on the eastern edge of Le Cloître. Its origins are not precisely known. The castle was probably built by the Lords of Saillon at the beginning of the 13th century. It has a wall with three round towers and a battlement. The oldest part is the square keep, to which several turrets with machicolations were later added. The castle was set on fire by the Bernese in 1475. After its reconstruction in 1489, it became the seat of the governor or bailiff. From 1804 onward, the castle belonged to the municipality and served as a court, prison, and, in part, as a hospital. It underwent extensive restoration from 1971 to 1992. Today it houses two museums: the Musée de la vigne et du vin and the Musée de l'étiquette. Next to the castle stands the large tithe barn (Maison de la dîme), built in 1587 on the site of the former castle of the nobles of Aigle. Source: Wikipedia
