Lucens Castle, Medieval castle in Vaud, Switzerland
The stone walls of Lucens Castle rise from an elevation of 559 meters, controlling the passage through the Broye valley in Switzerland.
From the Middle Ages until 1536, Lucens Castle functioned as the residence of the Bishop of Lausanne, managing the territories in the Broye valley.
The castle represents Swiss architectural heritage through its medieval design, fortified structure, and later modifications during the Bernese period.
The heritage site includes parking facilities, guided tour options, and multiple rooms suitable for private events, weddings, and corporate gatherings.
Between 1965 and 1970, the castle housed the Conan Doyle Foundation before transitioning back to private ownership.
