Brunswick Monument
 

Description

This tall and architecturally ornate monument which stands out on the right bank of the lake comes as a surprise. It is the tomb of the eccentric Charles II, Duke of Brunswick who spent the last three years of his life in Geneva. At his death in 1873 he bequeathed his fortune to the city of Geneva on condition that they bury him in a Mausoleum which would be the exact replica of Verona's 14th-century Scaligeri family Mausoleum.

Hard worth a mention
By ,
A momument stuck at the end of a street near the Lake front. If you're visiting Geneva I wouldn't waste the rubber on the soles of my shoes to see this - the only reason I did was because I happened to pass it and later found out what it was from a leaflet. As with most things in Geneva, you're expected to know what it is. There are no signs giving directions or information when you get there.
