Aubonne, between vineyard and countryside

Aubonne is recognisable by its famous round white tower overlooking the vineyards. Throughout this village, visitors discover the magnificent narrow streets and historic buildings in a warm and lively atmosphere.

The medieval castle with its famous round white tower, built in the 13th century (1236-42), dominates the village of Aubonne, the vineyards and the lake. The picturesque terraced houses, the narrow streets and the inner courtyard of the castle (built in 1670 and designed by Tavernier after his travels in the Orient) are all worth seeing on foot.

The history of Aubonne is explained in the attached document.

The Swiss cultural assets of national importance to be discovered in Aubonne are: the castle, the town hall and Grenette, the powder factory of La Vaux, the house of Aspre and its orangery and the manor and riding school of Bougy-St-Martin.
