Wonderful place to visit. Beautifully restored and right next to the airport. So if you have a long layover it's a perfect quick cab ride away to visit a very historical site to say the least! Don't forget that it is on the French side.

If I had a cathedral, this would be it. The home of that great humanist, that tower of the Enlightenment, Voltaire. Forget the bombast and crowds at Versailles; this is human scale and tranquil, very few visitors and lovely, tranquil gardens in the informal, romantic style. To sit on a bench under a centuries old oak and gaze across the Genevan plateau to the glistening triangular white bulk of Mont Blanc! What could be more satisfying?

Very beautiful chateau! The manor is well maintained. Booking via agency is much cheaper than booking on its website. Very reasonable price for each peaceful place and for 2 hours visit, no crowds on Saturday. Staff are also super friendly! It would be nice if they have a terrace cafe in the future! For exhibitions there are not too much interesting things to see but the organisation definitely makes an effort to entertain visitors.

This beautiful museum gives visitors insight into a unique part of Voltaire's life. The grounds are lovely, with great views of the mountains and counteyside. The Chateau has other exhibits on display. When I visited, there was a cabinet of curiosities exhibit. Not much time is required to see the house and grounds, but it is worth a visit if you are in Ferney Voltaire.

This place was recommended by the receptionist at the hotel we stayed at. It was in a beautiful location and free to visit and definitely worth the time it took to walk there. So we'll preserved and very beautiful. The floors were absolutely amazing. We had a lovely walk around the grounds also
