Chateau on the lake (Switzerland - day 4)

We came down out of the mountains to the lakeside to see a wonderfully preserved chateau - Chateau Chillon. 


The rear of the castle had a exit to the lake...for emergencies. 


It had a pretty nice dungeon - vaulted ceiling and light off the lake. 


The great hall the coat of arms from the surrounding families were painted on the ceiling - the bannermen


By far the most exciting room of the castle...


complete with fart jokes!


The the castle was in the shadow of a modern looking overpass.
