Shania Twain's Château de Sully (former)

La Tour-de-Peilz, Vaud

The Story

Château de Sully is a lakeside manor in La Tour-de-Peilz, in the Swiss canton of Vaud, above Vevey. It is privately owned, and Shania Twain lived here from 1998 to 2006.

Geneva architect Emile Reverdon built the house in 1882 for Baron Bertrand de Boucheporn. It was a comfortable mansion, not a castle, according to Swiss Castles.

Zurich industrialist Wilhelm Escher bought it in 1929 and had La Tour-de-Peilz architect Ferdinand Kurz add an east annex, a north porch and a semi-sunken pool. Writer Joseph Kessel was a later occupant, briefly.

Twain and Mutt Lange lived here from 1998 to 2006, spending heavily on renovations, most notably a recording studio, per immobilier.ch. The house has 46 rooms.

24 heures reported in August 2006 that Twain had lived there since 1998 and the house was being sold. Its September 2007 follow-up says the couple sold it a little over a year before.

The Swiss inventory lists the château as a regional heritage object. It is a private home with no public access.
