  2. 1768–1773Marc Lullin’s sons built the country house that became Villa La Grange.

  4. 1864The villa hosted the closing session of the conference at which the first Geneva Convention was signed.
  5. 1917–1918William Favre signed the gift agreement in 1917; the estate passed to Geneva and opened as a public park in 1918. The villa was reserved for official receptions and guests.
