Why go
This record is the museum, not the Manoir de Ban building item or Chaplin himself. The museum's pages say Chaplin settled at the Manoir de Ban in Corsier-sur-Vevey with his family in January 1953 and lived there until his death, and describe the Manoir, with the family's rooms and personal objects; the Studio, 1,350 square metres of film sets inspired by films such as The Kid, Modern Times and The Great Dictator; and a park of four hectares. The museum's home page says tickets can be booked online or bought at the ticket offices, and that orders by phone are not available. It is in Corsier-sur-Vevey, not in Montreux.
