The Medieval Village of Yvoire

Once a medieval stronghold, the medieval village of Yvoire overlooks the shores of Lake Geneva.

Exploring this small village is like taking a leap into the past and imagining oneself in the medieval era. Its narrow alleys, old stones, and castle are all remnants of a time that marked the life of this unique place.

Passing under a fortified gate will mark the beginning of your immersion and set the tone. Stroll through the narrow streets, wander up to the castle, and especially make a stop at its adjoining garden.

The 5 senses garden is an experience in itself. This garden, built like a labyrinth of plants, lets you experiment with each of your senses as you stroll along: touching, smelling, tasting, seeing, listening… Your senses will stay awake throughout your visit, and you won’t regret it l It’s a real pleasure.

Also, don’t miss a visit to the harbor, which seems delicately placed on this impressive lake, revealing a majestic view of the horizon.

And for those who feel like eating a little something, take a break in one of the village’s restaurants and savor the best it has to offer: perch, directly from the lake!
