Château d'Ouchy, Lausanne, Switzerland sent on September 21, 2024 (21:06) by MassiCricco. 50 comments, 836 views. [retina]

Il Castello di Ouchy fu costruito per la prima volta dal vescovo di Losanna come torre di avvistamento sulle rive del Lago Lemano intorno al 1170. Un secolo dopo fu ricostruito e trasformato in una residenza fortificata per i vescovi, in particolare da Guillaume de Varax. Fu anche utilizzato come prigione. Il castello fu abbandonato e la sua torre ridotta in cenere nel 1609. Il Cantone di Vaud lo recuperò dopo la partenza dei Bernesi e vendette parte del terreno all'imprenditore Jean-Jacques Mercier nel 1885. Il nuovo proprietario trasformò radicalmente il castello demolendo le rovine e i vecchi edifici, lasciando solo la torre. Il castello fu ricostruito in stile neogotico tra il 1889 e il 1893 e trasformato in albergo. In questo albergo fu firmato il trattato di Ouchy, del 1912, che sancì la fine della guerra italo-turca e riconobbe all'Italia il possesso delle province Libiche e il Dodecaneso e fu anche sede di colloqui diplomatici in vista della firma del più noto Trattato di Losanna del 1923, che segnò la fine dell'Impero Ottomano e stabilì i nuovi confini della Penisola Balcanica e del Medio Oriente. Un castello, dunque, di grande importanza storica.

The caption you wrote is instructive. The image is well balanced both in composition, particularity and quality of cloudy sky which thus gives more importance to the vision of the castle. Very good, bye.
