Today, 23 March 2021, the statue of Freddie Mercury on the shore of Lake Geneva in Montreux underwent a complete cleaning in the early hours of the morning.


A big thank you to the municipality of Montreux and the company Clément Borlat & fils, who, under the impulse of Montreux Celebration, carried out the cleaning.

A high pressure spray of chalk powder mixed with water was used to clean the base of the statue and remove dirt and various traces of wear.

Within a few days, the various information plates on the front and back will be polished and a water-repellent product will be applied. Finally a complete cleaning of the bronze of the statue will be carried out.

Freddie Tours will keep you informed of the progress of the work.
