The Brunswick Monument, situated in Geneva’s Jardin des Alpes, was constructed in 1879 to honor Charles II, the Duke of Brunswick. This neo-Gothic mausoleum is a striking replica of the 14th-century Scaligeri tomb in Verona, Italy. Rising on the shores of Lake Geneva, the monument features intricate stonework and a towering presence that makes it a notable landmark and a popular spot for photography. Visitors can explore the detailed architecture and enjoy the scenic views of the lake and surrounding gardens.
