Built in the 21st century, this castle has expanded over time with the addition of towers and other military fortifications.

Now used as a museum, you can discover a permanent exhibition of many objects dating from the 17th to the 19th centuries. As for the gardens, they house a collection of sculptures by Gaspard Delachaux on the theme of the imaginary world. Let those who are repelled by watches or other hybrids move on. Finally, temporary exhibitions take place within the castle grounds. Visit the museum website for further details on these.

Saint-Maurice Church, Fontaines

Highlight • Religious Site

Small town at the foot of the Chasseral.

The late Gothic church of Saint-Maurice was built in the 16th century in the shape of a Latin cross based on the Valangin collegiate church; the church tower dates from the 17th century. In the town center, some characteristic farmhouses from the 18th and 19th centuries have been preserved.
