歴史

The lake formed as the Rhône Glacier retreated, with tectonic folding also contributing. Its name changed over time: ancient writers used lacus Lemanus, Léman returned in the 16th century, and Lake Geneva became common in foreign languages from the 18th century. The lake has also been shaped by natural disasters, scientific research and pollution.

  1. About 16,000 years agoRetreat of the Rhône Glacier helped form the lake; tectonic folding also contributed.
  2. 563A tsunami destroyed the fort of Tauredunum and other settlements, and caused deaths in Geneva.
  3. AntiquityAncient writers, including Caesar, used the name lacus Lemanus.
  4. 1823The first steamship on the lake, Guglielmo Tell, entered service.

  1. 16th centuryHumanists and cartographers revived the name Léman. Lac de Genève also appeared and coexisted with earlier names.
  2. 18th centuryLake Geneva became common in foreign languages and early travel guides. Mary and Percy Shelley and Lord Byron holidayed by the lake and wrote ghost stories; one inspired Frankenstein.
  3. 19th century–1970sScientists debated whether tectonics, glaciation or both formed the lake. Seismic imaging in the 1980s supported glacial carving of its basin.
  4. Late 1960s–1980sPollution made swimming dangerous at some beaches in the late 1960s and nearly wiped out the lake’s fish by the 1980s.
  5. 1884Artificial regulation of the lake’s water level began.
  6. September 1898Empress Elisabeth of Austria was stabbed to death on Geneva’s quayside.
  7. 1978–2005The research submarine F.-A. Forel was used mainly for scientific work. In 2011, two Mir submersibles carried out ten weeks of research in the lake.

よくある質問

Is Lake Geneva safe for swimming?

Pollution levels have fallen, and the lake is again considered safe for swimming.

What fish live in Lake Geneva, and what is happening to its ecosystem?

About 30 fish species live in the lake, including char, perch, pike, whitefish and trout. Invasive quagga mussels arrived in 2016; they now coat the lake floor and disrupt its native food chain.

What sporting events take place on the lake?

The Bol d’or yacht race runs from Geneva to the far end of the lake and back. The Tour du Lac is a 160-kilometre non-stop rowing regatta, described as the world’s longest. The Signature is an annual 70 km swim from Chillon Castle to Geneva.

How does the lake affect local weather?

The lake softens mountain winters and cools nearby areas in summer. Under certain winter conditions, warm moisture from its waters can form thick fog that lasts two or three weeks.
