The Tour de Gourze is the remains of a medieval watchtower located on Mont de Gourze. Cubic in shape, it stands some 9 m high and overlooks the Lake Geneva basin. It offers an exceptional panorama of the Alps. Its origins have never been clearly determined: Queen Berthe is said to have built it in the 9th century to protect Lavaux from Saracen invasions; the action of the bishops of Lausanne in the 11th century has also been mentioned. At its foot is a café-restaurant serving Vaudois cheese specialities and panoramic views.
