Yverdon-les-Bains is a thermal spa and holiday village on Lake Neuchâtel. There are several interesting museums here, and water sports can be practiced on the lake. The thermal bath, which is now a modern spa center, has been known since Roman times.
The city and the local spa date back to Roman times, but the area was already inhabited in the Neolithic period. This is evidenced by archaeological discoveries and stone rows and menhirs that can be seen in the area. The ruins of a large thermal bath, the traditions of which continue to this day, date back to Roman times.
The modern thermal bath is the highlight of Yverdon-les-Bains. You can also relax on Lake Neuchâtel, where you will find Yverdon-les-Bains beach, a marina and water sports equipment rental.
The main monument of Yverdon-les-Bains is the 13th-century Savoy Castle, which now houses the Yverdon Regional Museum, a library and the Swiss Fashion Museum. There is also a science-fiction museum called "Home from somewhere else" in the city. The Old Town abounds in valuable monuments, such as the Old Town Hall, a Baroque Protestant church and numerous villas from the 18th and 19th centuries.
