1. Vitromusee

Reviewed By J M - Branson, Missouri
The stone castle exterior gives no hint of the remarkable stained glass and reverse painting on glass collection contained within its protective walls. Past the arched castle entrance way are connected buildings with multiple floors of glasswork loaned from Valais, Graubunden, Zurich, Fribourg History Museum, Swiss Confederation, Lausanne Archeology Museum, Basel History Museum, Bern History Museum, Swiss financial institutions and private collectors. The exhibits include treasures beginning in the Fifth century to more modern day artists, including a window by Frank Lloyd Wright. Grisaille, trefoil, quatrefoil, glazing, reverse painting and other ornamental techniques are displayed and explained for visitors. Historical references and backgrounds are provided in multi language exhibit guides. Allow plenty of the time to absorb and enjoy the complexity and richness of the works.
2. Sherlock Holmes Museum
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By Vedrik - Lausanne, Switzerland
Very authentic Sherlock feel, some fascinating miniatures representing his office in Baker Street, quite unreal to have something like this in Switzerland. The lady who works there was really kind and welcoming, yet she speaks only French, which could bother non-French speakers. At the backroom there is an interesting audio tour guiding you around the Sherlock's office, this is given in English. Most of the exhibits also come with descriptions in English, so French is not an issue. The price is reasonable, CHF 7 for adults, CHF 5 for children. Recommended if you are in the area.

Bellissimo. Si gioca a swin golf su un territorio molto ampio, in mezzo al verde. Si cammina di fatto per quattro ore e ci si diverte. Da fare con bambini, ma anche tra adulti sportivi...

Never seen anything like it before. Quite rustic and not for those with a weak bladder (toilets far away from the tents (and you have to climb down a ladder). A bit hard to find.
5. Atelier- Galerie Y'a q'A
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By Patrick009 - Montbrelloz
Un endroit tout à fait orignal, à l'intérieur comme à l'extérieur. Un tour ne suffit pas. Il faut prendre un peu de temps pour regarder et laisser le regard se poser sur les œuvres, sculptures, tableaux et objets qui peuples tous les espaces.
L'aventure commence par le chemin jusqu'à la galerie et se poursuit dans le parc attenant ainsi que les coins et recoins de l'espace exposition. Très bon accueil, contact simple. Un bon moment de découverte et d'échanges, sans se prendre la tête. Compter une bonne heure pour profiter de l'endroit. Et si l'envie vous prends, il est possible d'y prendre un rafraîchissement.
6. Maison Cailler Chocolaterie

Reviewed By emmaella611 - Moutier, Switzerland
It’s more than 5 times I visit this place.
I like all the concepts. One thing I don’t like is “the audio” because it’s not so practice. It’s better if Maison Cailler also provide the earphone.
The quiz and film in the cinema: it’s better to change the film or quiz regularly.
The staff in the “tasting counter” is not really friendly. No smile at all.
Come on Maison Cailler. You can do better than this. Up grade your service and be more creative.

Reviewed By Vicmonte - Metro Manila, Philippines
If you are in Central Switzerland, you have to visit Moleson and you have two options to reach the summit, the easy way or the hard way. Either way, the surrounds is a must to see! In my case, we took the gondola and we were treated with outstanding views of the Swiss Alps!!! On a clear day, you can see Mount Blanc! When the clouds start to roll in, it is awesome experience. You can either just stay in the restaurant or if you are fit, you can hike around!

10. Castle of Gruyeres
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1 reviews
Gruyères Castle has stood proudly atop a verdant hill in the heart of Switzerland since the 13th century. Surrounded by the magnificent Panorama of the Alpine foothills, the medieval fortress houses prestigious collections that bear witness to its long and rich history. The treasures to be found within its walls include the capes of the Order of the Golden Fleece and the intricate stained-glass windows dating from the Middle Ages; the frescoes commissioned by the bailiffs under the Ancien Régime; paintings by Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot and the troubadour decorations of the Salle des Chevaliers, created at Gruyères in the 19th century by a colony of passionate artists. From its ramparts to its French-style Gardens, from the guard room to its romantic salons, Gruyères Castle takes you on an adventure through eight centuries of art, history and legends.

Been to this lovely town a few times but this is the first time around the château. Only 12 Swiss francs per adult which is really cheep for Switzerland. It was very atmospheric and a really interesting couple of hours. Highly recommended.
