More info

At Maison Lavaux you can discover the region that since 2007 has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is a singular yet multi-faceted place, which allows you to immerse yourself in the life of Lavaux thanks to an exhibition split into several themes in three separate rooms.

The first of these deals with the physical landscape that was created by nature but that the winegrowers have worked on and developed for more than a thousand years. The second showcases the population of Lavaux thanks to a large mural representing the workers who bring this exceptional landscape to life. The last one gives an overview of artists particularly associated with this unique landscape.

You will be inspired and surprised by this exhibition, at the heart of the historic property Buttin-de- Loës in the charming village of Grandvaux.

Guided tours with a heritage guide can also be booked on request.

Recommendations:
For a successful experience, bring your smartphone and headphones to access the audio guide (French, German and English).
