It's a welcoming place to linger and soak up the atmosphere. There's a campsite near the bridge, and there's a small café there.

February 2, 2025, Murten Castle

Murten Castle dates back to the time of Count Peter II of Savoy (1255). Under the portal from 1516, which was rebuilt several times and in its current form dates from 1755, there was a cistern that is now only marked in the paving. The large, square tower, the so-called keep or "Luegisland", was used by Adrian von Bubenberg to monitor the events during the battle. While the castle was previously the residence of the mayors or was used as a hospital, barracks and prison, it is now the seat of the senior office of the Fribourg lake district. The Murten Classics take place in the castle courtyard every August and September. (https://fribourg.ch/de/regionmurtensee/architektur-und-denkmaeler/schloss-murten/)
