In the name of Louis XV, Choiseul wants a port and a city in Versoix
Geneva has reason to worry about the projects of the French minister, who wants to ruin the city at the end of the lake.
In the spring of 1768, the uprooting of trees in the middle of the countryside provoked the indignation of the people of Versois. In the front row are members of the illustrious Lullin family (one of the oldest in Geneva), on whose lands envoys from the Duke of Choiseul are preparing the construction of a town. The great looting began for the glory of King Louis XV, known as the Beloved, a flattering term that finds no echo among the robbed patricians of Geneva.
