According to our Swiss standard Morges can be considered a town, a little one, nevertheless a town of about 14.000 inhabitants ( just to give you an idea of our parameters…)
Morges once upon a time was an important commercial centre.
For this reason a port, which nowadays serves as a port for yachts, was built at the end of the 17th century.
The promenade along the lake shore of Morges stretches from the castle all the way to the Vertou Park and offers a fantastic view of the lake and Savoy Alps.
Morges Castle which was built in 1286 by Ludwig of Savoy houses several military-historic museums, including the museum of historic pewter figures with 10'000 figures.

You are welcome, as always, to take a virtual tour of Morges in my company, if you like....
