In the Geneva countryside, a 1710 manor house was the setting for one of the most famous and first science fiction novels. It was in this sumptuous mansion, formerly called Villa Belle Rive, that three young writers (Lord Byron, Mary Shelley and Percy Shelley) played a perilous game of writing a terrifying novel. By morning, Mary Shelley had written Frankenstein. The world's most famous science fiction novel was born in the canton of Geneva. The villa is privately owned and unfortunately cannot be visited.
