214 answers from official pages, in one place.

The Commune, the tourist office and the market organiser each publish on their own site. Here every answer names the page it was read on, and the day.

Nothing is guessed.

No model writes the answers. Each one was read on an official page and rewritten by hand. What we have not read, we say so.

Independent site. Not the Commune of Montreux, not the tourist office, not the market organiser. Facts are copied from the official pages linked on each page; if a figure differs, the official page is right.
