To mark National Day, come and challenge Swiss stereotypes in the exhibition ‘What is Switzerland?’ or take a stroll with the ‘Tour du propriétaire’. In the Château courtyard, local rural youth groups welcome you to a treasure hunt and a game of tug-of-war, and invite you to help decorate a flower-covered float! Listen to and join in with the drums and cowbell, and discover the spirit of the youth groups, a Swiss tradition that is very much alive. A festive and friendly occasion to enjoy with family or friends before heading off to the celebrations in your local communities.
