Château de Muzot, Medieval tower in Veyras, Switzerland.
Château de Muzot stands as a quadrangular structure with two floors and a hipped roof positioned between fields on the plateau of Veyras and Miège.
The 13th-century estate belonged to several noble families including de Blonay, de Platea, de Chevron, and de Montheys before its sale to Contrée de Sierre in 1714.
Werner Reinhart purchased the castle in 1921 and offered residence to poet Rainer Maria Rilke, who wrote Duino Elegies and Sonnets to Orpheus there.
The castle maintains its status as a Class B Swiss cultural property, situated at coordinates 46.30642 latitude and 7.54017 longitude in Noble-Contrée.
The medieval tower now operates as Château de Muzot SA, producing notable wines including Le Muzot Réserve and various Pinot Noir selections from local vineyards.
