Since the opening of the Châtel brigade in the 1920s, we have not counted the customs officers who have followed each other to watch the Franco-Swiss summits. But today the succession looks difficult, the customs officer retires, then the Old Customs recruits! We are counting on you to respond to the recruitment! Nostalgic, the last gabelou will not fail to share his anecdotes and his funny and unusual stories about the history of the border. Pig, sausage, cheese... it’s all over! But to train new customs officers capable of fulfilling their mission, nothing beats practice to put you to the test! But do not count on him to entrust the brigade to anyone: he reserves some challenges for you to test your abilities! Challenges and games await you to test your skills! Will you get your customs rank?
