Grandson

Few cities in Vaud have a history as closely tied to the Burgundian Wars as Grandson. On the western shore of Lake Neuchâtel, the town is marked by the 1476 Battle of Grandson, where the Swiss Confederates defeated the forces of Charles the Bold. Grandson Castle, a medieval fortress beside the lake, anchors its historic centre and recalls this decisive episode. The lakeside setting also places the town near the Jura foothills, amid the vineyards and farmland of northern Vaud.
