Beaulieu Castle, Classical castle in Bergières district, Lausanne, Switzerland
The castle features a fifty-meter-long neoclassical facade with decorated pilasters, sculptured window keystones, and a prominent entrance pediment.
Rodolphe de Crousaz constructed the eastern wing between 1763 and 1766 for Protestant pastor Gabriel-Jean-Henry Mingard, with Gabriel Delagrange later connecting existing structures.
The Collection of Art Brut, donated by Jean Dubuffet, has been housed within the castle walls since 1976, making it a center for artistic expression.
Located at 7-11 Avenue des Bergières, the castle operates as a museum displaying contemporary art collections throughout its historical rooms.
The castle combines an original farmhouse with a grand residence, united by a central building to create an extended architectural composition.
