Chaplin's last home to be museum

Charlie Chaplin’s last home in Switzerland will be turned into a permanent place of pilgrimage for fans of the actor who immortalised the “Little Tramp”, one of his sons said today.

The mansion at Corsier-sur-Vevey by the shores of Lake Geneva was chosen ahead of Los Angeles and London as the site of the first museum dedicated to the screen legend, said Michael Chaplin.
