Allaman is a municipality in the district of Morges in the canton of Vaud in Switzerland. The village is famous for the medieval Allaman Castle (Château d'Allaman), built by the Count of Vaud in 1253. Allaman is first mentioned in 1234 as Alamant. The wealthy Genevan philanthropist Jean-Jacques de Sellon, who owned the property until 1839, gave accommodation at the castle to, amongst many others, such political refugees as Napoleon's brother Joseph Bonaparte, Joséphine de Beauharnais, the Duke of Bassano, the Count Camille Cavour, Voltaire as well as to Franz Liszt and George Sand. In 1830 de Sellon founded the Society of Peace, a forerunner of the League of Nations and the United Nations Organization (UNO). More information...
