We'll go on the footsteps of the great Charlie Chaplin. Most of us know the little man with the melon and moustache in his most famous role as Tramp. But Charlie Chaplin was not only a comedian and actor, but also a director, screenwriter, editor, composer and film producer.

Charlie Chaplin`s world in Corsier sur Vevey - a museum to laugh, learn and have fun

The museum in the beautiful manor house accompanies you on the last 25 years of the legendary artist. Because here the British-born artist lived with his wife Oona until his death in 1977. His career took him from London, where he had already performed as a child, to the Hollywood dream factory. Charlie is known as the first world star of cinema and is one of the most influential comedians in film history. Characteristic for his films is the combination of slapstick comedy with serious to tragic scenes. Chaplin caused a sensation with his first sound film, the satirical anti-hitler parody "Der grosse Diktator".

Explore the private rooms of Charlie and Oona on a tour of the Manoir. The furniture and personal belongings of this extraordinary artist bear witness to his amazing career. In the studio you will be taken into the different epochs and the spectacular world of silent film. Marvel at the sets and try your skills in the art of pantomime. Around the manor house there is a 4 hectare estate. The park is open to the public and offers a wonderful view of Lake Geneva and the Alps.
