My son was thrilled to find a statue of Freddie Mercury as we walked along the lakefront to Chillon. It is a popular photo place, so if you want a picture with the statue, or of the statue alone, it is best to get there early (our walk over it was empty, but our walk back there was a small...

The Place du Marche with Freddie Mercury's memorialstatue is really a lovely place in Montreux. On a sunny day people sit near his statue on the Riviera and enjoy the beauty of this place. Definetly a place you have to visit when your in Montreux.

Whether you are a Freddie Mercury/Queen fan or not you have to pop along here. There is a seating area nearby to make it better. Perfect location overlooking the lake.
