Lohn Manor, Federal manor in Kehrsatz, Switzerland.

The mansion features Neo-classical architecture with two main facades, one facing south and another facing west, plus five bedrooms and a dining hall.

Built in 1782 for the Tscharner family, the estate was designed by architect Carl Ahasver von Sinner and later donated to the Swiss Confederation in 1942.

The interior spaces contain numerous art pieces and furniture from the Welti collection, representing Swiss artistic and decorative traditions of different periods.

Located at Lohnweg 2 in Kehrsatz, the manor now functions as a venue for government events and receptions rather than accommodating official guests.

From 1942 to 1994, this estate served as the primary residence for international dignitaries visiting Switzerland, including Winston Churchill and Queen Elizabeth II.
