Schadau Castle, Gothic Revival castle in Thun, Switzerland
The castle stands near Lake Thun, featuring intricate architectural details, pointed arches, and decorative elements throughout its limestone exterior.
Three architects, Pierre-Charles Dusillion, James-Victor Colin, and Frédéric-Louis de Rutté, collaborated on the castle's construction from 1846 to 1854.
The Swiss Gastronomy Museum inside the castle presents exhibits that document the evolution of culinary traditions and cooking methods in Switzerland.
