Château de Chillon near Montreaux was an awesome castle to visit. It may not look it, but it can take you more than an hour to explore all the chambers, dungeons, secret passageways and towers. It exhibited various artifacts and depictions of death sentences given to alleged witches and warlocks between the 15th and 17th century. The castle itself was a detention centre for those accused of witchcraft and wizardry waiting to be tried. Of course, at that time, things like birthmarks or moles on the body was considered as a witch's mark. So... that means that if I lived there during those times, I would definitely be prosecuted. Especially if caught holding a flying broom stick.
