Audrey Hepburn Home - Tolochenaz

Audrey Hepburn's home is located on Route de Lully in Tolochenaz, Switzerland.  The Oscar winning actress moved here in 1963 with her husband, actor Mel Ferrer.  Her home, known as La Paisible, was a quiet retreat from the Hollywood scene.  In 1963 after ten years in the public eye she found the quiet village of Tolochenaz on the northern bank of Lake Geneva and would maintain a home here for the rest of her life.  At the top of her game, she would star in several films over the next few years, including Charade (1963), My Fair Lady (1964), How To Steal A Million (1966), Two For The Road (1967) and Wait Until Dark (1967).  After this final film she took a break from acting to devote more of her time to her personal life.  She and Ferrer were divorced in 1968 and she married Andrea Dotti, an Italian psychiatrist,  in 1969.  Their union lasted until 1982 and produced a son, Luca, in 1970.  She returned to the screen in Robin and Marion in 1976, but she was never to recapture her earlier success.  Her film work after this was sporadic and although she had become a screen legend her most famous endeavor during this time was her charitable work for UNICEF, for whom she was appointed a Goodwill Ambassador in 1988.  Her final film role was in Always (1989).  She passed away here at La Paisible on January 20, 1993, from complications of a rare form of abdominal cancer.
