Château de Symond (Bois Salève)

En un regard

Le château en bref

The Château de Symond, also known as the Château du Bois Salève, is a former fortified manor house situated at the locality known as the Pas de l'Échelle, in the commune of Étrembières (Haute-Savoie, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes). First attested in the 14th century, it controlled access to the staircase cut into the rock of the Mont Salève that links the village of Monnetier. Converted into a religious boarding school and later into a social care facility during the 20th century, it belonged to the SNCF from 1934 to 2003 before being renovated and converted into flats.
