Gruyères Village

Le Gruyère AOP is a cheese with a long tradition and its making has been handed down over many generations of cheesemakers both in the alpine and village cheese dairies.

La Maison du Gruyère guides you for 30-45min. through a modern world of the senses and their cow Cerise (Cherry) introduces you to the secrets of the Gruyère AOP making.
