Gorgier Castle, Medieval castle in La Grande Béroche, Switzerland

The stone fortress stands at 518 meters elevation, offering views across Lake Neuchâtel and the surrounding Alpine landscape.

James-Alexandre de Pourtalès acquired the castle in 1813, marking a transition from feudal ownership to private residence status.

The castle holds the designation of class A Swiss cultural property, reflecting its architectural and historical value to the nation.

Following extensive renovations from 2004 to 2014, the castle now functions as a private residence, maintaining its original structural elements.

The castle remained in the Borel family's possession for over a century until 2001, when an American family purchased the property.
