Lavaux, Vineyard Terraces
The Lavaux vineyard terraces stretch for about 30 kilometres, running southwards along the northern shore of Lake Geneva, from the Château de Chillon to the eastern outskirts of Lausanne in canton Vaud, covering the lower slopes between the village and the lake. While there is evidence of vine cultivation in the area during Roman times, the current vineyard terraces date back to the 11th century, when Benedictine and Cistercian monasteries controlled the area. It is an outstanding example of centuries-old interaction between humans and the environment, aimed at optimising local resources and producing high-value wines that have always been vital to the economy.
