Gruyères Castle: Medieval Walls, Alien Art & Cheese Fondue Stops
★4.6(268)
Ditch the fairy-tale tropes and head straight for the ramparts for views of the Fribourg Alps. You only need about an hour to explore the interior tapestries and courtyards, but the real draw is the contrast between 13th-century history and the H.R. Giger Museum right next door. Skip the expensive gift shop and grab a pot of half-and-half fondue in the village instead. Visit on a weekday morning to beat the tour bus crowd.
Address: Rue du Château 8, Gruyères, Switzerland, 1663
