Colombier Castle, Medieval castle in Milvignes, Switzerland.

Colombier Castle stands on the foundations of a Roman villa with mosaics and terraced gardens dating from the 1st to 3rd centuries.

The initial construction of the castle dates to the 11th century, with major extensions in the 13th century and final form achieved in the 16th century.

The castle houses the Neuchâtel Military Museum and represents an outstanding example of Swiss architectural heritage of national significance.

Visitors can access the castle courtyard and benefit from restaurants and services located within 300 meters of the premises.

The site combines an active federal military barracks since 1877 with architectural elements preserved for over a thousand years.
