Abbey Church of Payerne, Payerne The Abbey Church of Payerne, also known as the Abbey Church of Payerne, is a significant masterpiece of Romanesque architecture in Switzerland. It was likely founded around 962 by Empress Adelaide as a memorial site at the burial place of her mother, Queen Bertha of Burgundy. The church is the largest surviving Romanesque place of worship in Switzerland and was once one of the first daughter monasteries of the reform abbey of Cluny. The history of the Payerne monastery is closely linked to the history of the Burgundian Wars and the Reformation. The Abbey Church and the monastery of Payerne are unique historical sites that enchant visitors with their impressive architecture and fascinating history.

Abbey Church / Monastery Peterlingen, Payerne The Abbey of Payerne, a jewel of Romanesque art in Switzerland, has been built since the first third of the 11th century on the same site where churches had already stood before. A Cluniac priory since the 10th century, Payerne benefited from the donations of the Kingdom of Upper Burgundy. The current church of Payerne adopted various characteristics of Cluniac architecture, in particular the end with a stepped choir and the two-story westwork, which features remarkable wall paintings.
