Corseaux, Residential municipality in Riviera-Pays-d'Enhaut District, Switzerland

Corseaux is a residential municipality in the Riviera-Pays-d'Enhaut District situated near Lake Geneva. The community occupies a small territory where homes and natural green spaces characterize the local landscape.

The settlement first appeared in written records in 1179 under the name Corsal. This early community gradually transformed into the modern municipality with its present administrative organization.

Villa Le Lac, the residence Le Corbusier designed for himself, stands as a UNESCO World Heritage site within the municipality. Visitors can observe how the architect applied his design principles to create a home that reflects his modernist philosophy.

The municipality is well connected by public transportation to surrounding Swiss cities. Visitors will find educational facilities and standard infrastructure for both short visits and longer stays.

The municipal coat of arms features a heart positioned above two stars and a crescent, an unusual combination in Swiss heraldry. These symbols tell a distinctive story of local identity and heritage.
