Allaman Castle, Medieval castle in Allaman, Switzerland.
The castle stands on a 33-hectare estate with private forests, parks, gardens, and vineyards producing Grand Cru wines near Lake Geneva.
Built in 1253 by Louis, Duke of Savoy, the castle provided shelter to Joseph Bonaparte and Empress Joséphine de Beauharnais during political conflicts.
The castle features 6,200 square meters of living space and represents traditional architectural elements of the Vaud region through multiple historical periods.
Visitors can access the castle through the Allaman railway station on the Lausanne-Geneva line, connecting to multiple regional destinations.
In 1820, Count Jean-Jacques de Sellon established the Society of Peace at the castle, preceding both the League of Nations and United Nations.
