History

Glion has been documented since 1693 and developed from a rural farming community into a significant health resort in the 19th century.

The Territet–Glion funicular railway was built in 1883; the Montreux–Glion–Rochers-de-Naye cog railway was completed between 1892 and 1909. Both developments are associated with improved access to Glion.

Glion’s location and the Chauderon Gorge contributed to Glion taking on the role of a tourist destination in the 19th century.
