 Bioley-Magnoux is a municipality in the district of Yverdon of the canton of Vaud in Switzerland. The village is located 10 km east of Yverdon and played some historic role in previous times. It is dominated by a medieval castle the origins of which date back to 1105. Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy 1433–77, last reigning duke of Burgundy (1467–77), son and successor of Philip the Good, made his quarters at the castle early in June 1476 on his way to Murten where he lost the battle against the confederates. The castle is now home to the Jonas-Foundation [1] Farming is the predominant activity. The village is known for its annual Ascension Day road race which attracts participation from the surrounding region. The local restaurant "La Petite Auberge" is renowned for its oven baked chicken and homemade french fries.
