The castle of Neuchâtel is located at the oriental end of a hill overlooking the old town. It is built around two courtyards: the main one in the centre, and a small courtyard that was significantly reduced in height in the 20th century. It was the residence of the lords, then counts of Neuchâtel from the end of the 12th century. Since the 16th century, the current castle has been occupied by governors as service quarters and, for at least the last two centuries, by the cantonal administration. Most of the buildings date back to the 15th century but a roman style wing from the end of the 12th century is the oldest civil building in Switzerland that has been used without interruption.
