Castle History The historical records of Chillon Castle can be traced back to the 11th century. Since ancient Roman times, it has been the main traffic road between Italy and France. In the 12th century, it became the residence of the Italian Savoy family, in 1536. After being administered by the Swiss in Bern, it was used as an official residence and armory.

More than 200 prisoners were imprisoned that year. In 1532, the abbot of St. Victor Abbey in Geneva, Boniwain, advocated the independence of Geneva, and was chained to the stone pillar for four years until March 29, 1536 in Switzerland. After the people captured the castle, they released him. In 1816, when the British poet Byron visited Chillon Castle, he heard about this tragic history, so he left his signature on the stone pillar and wrote "The Prisoner of Chillon". There are many magnificent halls in the castle. They were once the place where the Safoy family feasted, and now they are also used to undertake various banquets, dances and birthday parties. The windows of all the halls face Lake Geneva, and the windows open to the charming scenery composed of Lake Geneva and the surrounding mountains.
