In 1880, the site of Le Rosey's campus was chosen by the school's founder, Paul-Emile Carnal, "a lover of nature, history and the countryside". The school's campus at Rolle is situated adjacent to the famous Lake Geneva. In 1911, the founder passed the ownership of Le Rosey to his son, Henri-Paul Carnal.
