Château du Rosey, a [[feudal]] [[chateau]] located on Le Rosey's main campus at Rolle, dates to the [[Middle Ages]] and houses the school's central reception area.<ref>{{cite web|date=May 1997|url= http://www.swisscastles.ch/Vaud/chateau/bursinsrosay.html|title= Le château du Rosey|access-date = 2007-07-14}}</ref> 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 Lake Geneva. In 1911, the founder passed the ownership of Le Rosey to his son, Henri-Paul Carnal. In 1917, the school began to go to Gstaad in the [[German language|German]]-speaking canton of Bern for the winter months to escape the dense fog that settles in on Lake Geneva.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.rosey.ch/en/htmlRosey/histoire.html| title=A Rich History| access-date       =2007-07-14| url-status=dead| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070704055744/http://www.rosey.ch/en/htmlRosey/histoire.html| archive-date       =4 July 2007| df=dmy-all}}</ref>

In 1931, Lucien Brunel, a former member of the International Red Cross and former director of the Institut Haccius at the Château de Lancy (Geneva), also known as the Grand-Lancy Castle, took on by demand of Henri Carnal, the direction of Rosey until 1949.{{cn|date=April 2025}} In 1947, the third generation of directors, Louis Johannot and Helen Schaub, assumed ownership of Le Rosey. Under the same ownership, Le Rosey admitted girls for the first time in 1967 and opened a separate girls' campus. In 1980, the current owners, Philippe and Anne Gudin de la Sablonnière, became the fourth generation of directors at Le Rosey. Louis Johannot, in an interview with ''[[Life Magazine]]'' in 1965, made a comment that received considerable attention: "The only reason I always try to meet and know the parents better is because it helps me to forgive their children."<ref>{{cite web
