Rental of the facilities

The Hardt Foundation estate, aerial view.

The Hardt Foundation facilities (main house, orangery, greenhouse, garden and park) are available upon request for events (conferences, colloquia, seminars, concerts and other events) on various topics in which classical Antiquity has a prominent, but not exclusive, place. Events organised by private individuals are also welcome.

For events over several days, accommodation of guests is possible according to availability and the Foundation’s opening periods.

During its opening periods, the Foundation can provide lunches, dinners or cocktail receptions for external guests as part of an event held on its premises.

Under the agreement between UNIGE and the Hardt Foundation, the latter agrees to make the facilities available free of charge to any lecturer wishing to organise a symposium, a conference or a seminar. However, catering and accommodation are to be covered by the University.
