La Tour-de-Peilz, a lakeside town with medieval charm, is an invitation to discover and contemplate. Firstly, the castle built in the 13th century and home to the Swiss Games Museum, and secondly, the port and its vast expanses of soft grass. A landscape and an atmosphere that have inspired many artists, including the painter Gustave Courbet, who lived in the village from 1873 to 1877.
