Artistic residency
Marc Aymond & Jérémy Kisling

Marc Aymond and Jérémy Kisling write songs
Gruyères Castle is joining forces with an original idea by Marc Aymon to create an artistic residency in the Music Room and other areas of the castle. Accompanied by songwriter Jérémie Kisling, the artist invites you to take a week-long behind-the-scenes look at the creative process involved in writing new songs, followed by a confidential, never-before-seen concert in the heart of Gruyères Castle.
Since the 19th century, Gruyères Castle has been a place of creativity. Painters, sculptors, composers and musicians have gathered there over the years to take part in the artistic life of the colony founded by the Bovy family, the last private owners of the site. Now a historic site and museum, the castle continues this tradition by welcoming artists who draw inspiration from its exceptional setting to create new works.
