Caux Palace Hotel, Historical hotel building in Caux, Switzerland
The Caux Palace Hotel stands at an altitude of 1000 meters above Lake Geneva, featuring towers and turrets with colored tiles across its 400-meter terrace.
Architect Eugene Jost designed this grand establishment in 1902, transforming a pastoral farming area into a destination for international elite visitors until World War I.
The building earned recognition as a Class A Swiss cultural property of national significance and became a center for peace initiatives after World War II.
The Swiss Hotel Management School currently operates within the premises during academic terms while maintaining conference facilities for international events.
Future leaders of the European Coal and Steel Community conducted meetings at this location, contributing to post-war reconciliation efforts across the continent.
