Neuchâtel lies at the border of a lake of the same name and at the foot of the green slopes of Chaumont (1,161m/3,808 ft.). It's the capital of the canton of Neuchâtel, created in 1815 out of a Prussian principality that had joined the Swiss Confederation.

They acquired their fame for watchmaking as early as the 18th century.
