Easter Holidays at the Fort de Chillon Museum:

A Unique Experience for the Whole Family

Pâques au Fort de Chillon

From April 3 to 19, 2026, the Fort de Chillon Museum will be open every day for an Easter holiday full of discoveries and entertainment.

 

Located near Montreux, opposite the famous Château de Chillon, our museum has prepared a special program combining culture, indulgence, and fun activities for all ages.

Here’s what awaits you:

Second participation in PâKOMUZé: “Coded Message” workshops
The Fort de Chillon Museum is participating in the Vaud cultural event PâKOMUZé for the second time. To mark the occasion, a unique workshop on coded messages is being offered (reservation required). Decipher a message, identify fake news, and learn how to read a map to find the most secret place in the Fort. 

Gourmet Easter Egg Hunt (April 3–6)
Enjoy an Easter egg hunt like no other in partnership with Les Bons Sirops Morand. Each child will receive an eco-cup and set off in search of large decorative eggs, collecting chocolates and other treats hidden in the Fort along the way. A fun and delicious way to discover this iconic location.

The Fort de Chillon Museum is perfect for a family excursion, rain or shine. Discover our immersive permanent exhibition on The Adventure of the Swiss Soldier and the fascinating history of the National Redoubt. Through interactive cinematics, strategic games, and quizzes, dive into the world of Swiss citizen-soldiers while addressing current defense themes in a non-alarming way.
