According to publication Chillon by Auguste Guignard (former secretary of the Association for the Restoration of the Chillon Castle), published by Ruckstuhl SA (Renens, Switzerland) in 1996:
"The oldest historical document relating to Chillon bears the date 1005, and from this it is seen that the castle belonged to the bishops of Sion, who confided its care to the d'Alinge family."
[edit] Page name
The article name should either be "Château de Chillon" (French), or "Chillon Castle" (English). "Chateau of Chillon" is a horrid mixture of the two. I would go for the english name as this is english wiki. Any other preferences? ::Supergolden:: 12:06, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
Agreed. Moving to Château de Chillon for consistency in naming. Emeraude 11:17, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Doh! Made a typo and got DU Chillon. Wil attempt to rectify. Emeraude 11:18, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
I fixed eight(!) redirects from "what links here", seems to be all sorts of ways to refer to it. -- Stbalbach 17:14, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- Moved per request (no particular opinion whether it should be "Chillon Castle"). User:Werdnabot is going to fix double redirects soon. Duja►
