One of the best museum! Great materials, interesting storyline, info is smartly delivered! In 1.5 hour you would know everything about Jura: history, geography, path through centuries, culture, heritage! By the way, you can buy the materials for 15chf, as they are so well done, information is truly interested. By the time in museum is difficult to put everything into mind, so nice to discover the details later!

Interesting and very modern designed museum around the Jura. Rooms divided according to various topics such as religion, politics, geography, etc. with good but not too detailed information and, in some cases, interactive exhibits. Worth a visit. Friendly staff

The Jura Museum of Art and History is one of the 50 best museums in Switzerland that is well worth seeing. The processing of the historically very comprehensive history of the Jura and the modern way it is presented to the visitor is instructive and exciting at the same time. WORTH SEEING

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
