(Martin Chilton’s article appeared in the Telegraph, 4/14.) 

The Charlie Chaplin Museum opens in Switzerland on April 17, 2016, paying tribute to the London-born comedian who was one of Hollywood's most important early stars.

Chaplin's World, which has been in planning for 15 years, will open in the pretty village of Corsier-sur-Vevey on Lake Geneva, some 15 miles from Lausanne.

Chaplin, who was born in Walworth, South London, on April 16, 1889, died aged 88 on Christmas Day 1977.
