Schloss Waldegg | Feldbrunnen - St. Niklaus
Das Gebäude wurde zwischen 1682 und 1690 als Sommerresidenz des Schultheißen Johann Viktor von Besenval erbaut. Besenval war 1628 als Silberkrämer aus dem Aostatal eingewandert und stieg innerhalb kurzer Zeit in die Solothurner Oberschicht auf. Da Solothurn von 1530 bis 1792 die französische Gesandtschaft in der Alten Eidgenossenschaft beherbergte, standen den Söhnen des Solothurner Patriziats Karrieren im französischen Königreich offen. Auf Waldegg folgte der 1721 geborene Peter Viktor von Besenval, welcher während der Französischen Revolution unter dem Oberbefehl des Kriegsministers Victor-François de Broglie den Posten des Kommandanten der zur Niederschlagung der Unruhen nach Paris beorderten Streitkräfte innehat. Seine Memoiren zeichnen ein atmosphärisches Bild der Ereignisse.
1865 gelangte der Landsitz durch Heirat und Kauf an die Solothurner Patrizierfamilie von Sury-Büssy. Das Schlossgebäude erfuhr im späten 19. Jahrhundert eine räumliche Neukonzeption, als zwei getrennte Appartements eingerichtet wurden. Ab dem frühen 20. Jahrhundert wurde das Schloss ganzjährig bewohnt. Mangels Nachkommen ging das Schloss 1963 als Stiftung an den Kanton Solothurn. Heute dient das Schloss als Wohnmuseum und als Veranstaltungsort für Ausstellungen, Konzerte und private Anlässe.

Waldegg Castle | Feldbrunnen-St.Niklaus| Solothurn Switzerland
The most beautiful country manor of the Solothurn patriciate Waldegg Castle Feldbrunnen-St.Niklaus Switzerland.
Here, where ambassadors and the aristocracy once went in and out, visitors can immerse in the same bygone world today - and learn of a time when Solothurn was the seat of the French ambassadors with the aid of a modern, multimedia guide.
From the old town of Solothurn it’s just 30 minutes on foot to the castle Waldegg: A walk that’s well worth it on arriving at the feudal scene - where the final stretch presents an imposing tree-lined avenue leading to the entrance. It was in the 17th century that the powerful Johann Viktor von Beseval gave his orders for the place to be built as a summer residence. The building bears witness to the aristocratic and diplomatic history - and time when Solothurn was the seat of the ambassador to the French king.
What to do at Waldegg Castle Wanderland?
Today the castle is a museum - and inside, baroque-furnished salons and massive oil paintings document former, everyday life. And outdoors, baroque-style premises with orange trees and vegetable garden invite you to a leisurely stroll. Thanks to ultra modern multimedia guides, it doesn’t take long to feel transported back through the ages either - to the past world of noble gentry and diplomats.
I hope you like the video!

Waldegg Castle, Switzerland
History
The Baroque castle was built in 1682-86 as the summer home for Schultheiss Johann Viktor von Besenval (1638-1713) and his wife Maria Margaritha von Sury (1649—1713).
His son, Johann Viktor II (1671-1736) was a diplomat and an officer in the French Swiss Guards. After he inherited the castle he had it renovated (1729-34), adding a theater and the chapel of St. Michael, and decorated in the current French style. He brought numerous works of art back with him from France.
Johann Viktor II's son, Baron Peter Viktor von Besenval (1721-1791) was born at the castle. However, he lived most of his life in France. He did, however, add an orangery to the castle in 1780. The French Revolution of 1789 was disastrous to the family's influence, business interests and wealth. While they were able to escape to Switzerland, their close ties to the old nobility made them unwelcome in France. When the Besenval family died out, the castle was abandoned until it was purchased by Joseph von Sury von Besenval in 1865. The new owner added two apartments and changed the Baroque garden into an English garden.
In 1963 the castle was transferred to the Waldegg Castle Foundation and in 1975 it became the headquarters of the Center for Intercultural Dialogue, an organization that fosters understanding between the different languages and cultures of Switzerland. Beginning in 1985 it was extensively renovated and repaired, a project that lasted twenty years. The castle museum opened in 1991.
The Castle
The castle was built in the local Turmlihaus style, but incorporating elements of the French and Italian Baroque. The central building features three large towers and is flanked by symmetric, two story tall galleries with corner turrets. Niches in the galleries house allegorical statues which were carved in 1683 by Johann Peter Frölicher. The eastern turret houses the castle chapel with a high-Baroque altar from 1720. The second chapel has reproductions of St. Michael by Raphael and St Raphael by Domenico Fetti, the originals of which both hang in the Louvre. The main hall has ten allegorical paintings of the Arts and Sciences and is decorated with supraporte and trompe-l'œil illusions. The eastern salon has a grisaille style ceiling painting while the west salon and billiard rooms both have trompe-l'œil illusions painted on the ceiling.

The king - and queen - of the castle
Though most of Switzerland’s castles and palaces are state owned, the descendants are allowed to live in the wings in some cases - like at Waldegg in canton Solothurn. (SRF/swissinfo.ch)
There are around 900 castles and palaces in Switzerland, and because of the high maintenance costs, most of them belong to the state. They house offices as well as museums, have been converted into apartments and are venues for private and public events.
Waldegg in canton Solothurn is over 300 years old, and descendants of the original owner have been calling it home again for the past couple of years. They live in a wing closed to the public.
Swiss castles and other stately buildings are promoted every year on Swiss Castle day, which this year was October 1. During the day, eighteen places across the country were opened for the public to experience history.
The castles included Chillon on Lake Geneva - one of Switzerland's most visited, the Castelgrande in Bellinzona in Ticino, Thun in the Bernese Alps and Gruyères in Fribourg.
