Breathtaking views of the Alps and Jura mountains

Château de Voltaire, vue sur les Alpes et le mont Blanc depuis les jardins côté façade arrière du château

It's no coincidence that Voltaire built his château between two mountain ranges to the north and south. Get ready to see the most beautiful view of Mont Blanc from the high terraces of castle of Voltaire!

Sandwiched between the Jura Mountains to the north and the Alps to the south, the Château de Voltaire is as impressive for its elegant neoclassical allure as for its magnificent 7-hectare wooded park and views of the surrounding mountains.

A veritable jewel of greenery in the heart of a dynamic city!
