Gruyères - Alpine horn players

The medivial little village called Gruyere is a charming place. Despite of its small size it is an important touristic target. At the foot of the hill is the world famous Gruyere cheese factory, on top of the hill is the medivial village, which is a big square surrounded by houses. The chateau is at the very end. A part of the castle was bought by the creator of Alien, HR Giger and it hosts a museum, devoted to all of his creations.

From June to September, Alpine Horn players and flag throwers will enliven the town of Gruyères. The musicians begin their little tour at the entrance to the town and continue on as far as the Chateau.
