The foundations of this church, an example of Romanesque art in Vaud, date from before the year 1000. Of the old Romanesque building, only the apses with semi-dome, the choir, the vaulted transept and a crossing surmounted by a square bell tower remain. The interior is extremely sober, although the colourful decoration softens the severity. The building has been used for Protestant worship since the 16th century.

After a short drive in the old village of St-Sulpice and a short descent, we discover this magnificent Romanesque church. If some want, they can take the boat from here or walk along the lake to the marina. Calm and wonder await you
