PROJECT CHÂTEAU DE GRANDSON 2026
« Château de Grandson 2026 » est un projet de rénovation patrimoniale et de renouveau muséal qui vise à replacer le Château de Grandson dans le paysage culturel et touristique helvétique. Ce projet d’envergure de plus de 40 millions de francs, mené de concert par la fondation propriétaire du château, la Stiftung für Kunst, Kultur und Geschichte (SKKG) et la Fondation du Château de Grandson est une opportunité touristique rare pour le Nord vaudois et le canton dans son ensemble. Le château reste ouvert au public pendant toute la durée de ce projet grâce à des visites guidées qui permettront d’apprécier l’ampleur des travaux de rénovation.
