Temporary location
The statue of Freddie Mercury in Montreux has found its temporary location for the duration of the Montreux Jazz Festival.
To make space for the big stage that will be set up on the lake, but above all to be able to leave the statue accessible at all times to the many people who have come to Montreux to admire it, the statue has been moved temporarily to the Gardens of La Rouvenaz, just a few metres from its original location. This is a unique opportunity to photograph it from a new angle. The statue will be returned to its original location at the bottom of the Market Square as soon as the works dismantling the Montreux Jazz Festival are completed at the end of July. Many thanks to the Borlaz et Fils company in Montreux, as well as to the Commune de Montreux and the Montreux Jazz Festival, for taking such good care of this statue!
