GO BEHIND THE SCENES OF THE GRANDSON CONSTRUCTION SITE

Lasting 45 minutes, the guided tour of the worksite is an exceptional opportunity to visit Grandson Castle while it is being restored. From now on, you’ll tour the building and its rooms with a guide who will reveal what goes on behind the scenes of these major heritage restorations.

We highly recommend that you book online for the tour of your choice, as places are limited to 12 people per tour. These guided visits are open to all but only to children aged 6 and over. Please wear closed shoes. Helmets and safety waistcoats are provided on site. This activity is not suitable for people with reduced mobility or children under the age of 6 (even if accompanied!). We reserve the right to refuse the entry to any person who does not meet the above conditions. 

Regular workshops and events take you behind the scenes of the vast restoration worksite and the trades involved.

Note:

🔺 The monument is only accessible during guided tours for safety reasons related to the restorations. You cannot therefore visit it on your own!

🔺 The castle is accessible to children aged 6 and over.

🔺 The car museum has been definitly closed since 2016.

🔺 The weapons and armour collections are not visible for the duration of the works.
