La Grande Béroche is located in the west of the Canton of Neuchâtel. Its territory spreads from Vaumarcus to Bevaix on the shores of the lake, and on the heights up to the Creux-du-Van, a cirque located mainly in the municipality. Merged on 1 January 2018, it consists of the villages of Bevaix, Fresens, Gorgier, Montalchez, Saint-Aubin-Sauges and Vaumarcus, and has 9,080 inhabitants. The municipality lies between the lake and the mountains in a green setting and enjoys an exceptional location in the heart of the vineyards and opposite Lake Neuchâtel.
Born in Fribourg in 1925, the sculptor, painter and draughtsman was particularly well known for his innovative art, blending salvaged objects with motors to bring them to life. So the first stage of the Tour, from Basel to Fribourg, will highlight this avant-garde artist.
