Did you know ?
The peaceful life of the ancient village of Glérolles came to an abrupt end in 563 AD when a mountainside collapse sent a tidal wave crashing against the banks of Lake Geneva, destroying the village, which was later renamed Saint-Saphorin. Only the castle bears the name of the Roman village devastated by this disaster, Glerula, (from the Latin glarea, meaning “gravel” or “coarse sand”).
