Lausanne Cathedral

  Perched on a hill in the heart of Lausanne, Lausanne Cathedral is a remarkable example of Gothic architecture, dating back to the 12th century. Its impressive tower reaches a height of 75 meters, making it visible from various points around the city. This cathedral not only serves as a place of worship but also houses an organ with over 5,000 pipes, adding to its musical significance. Visitors can explore the stunning stained glass windows and the intricately carved facade throughout the year, but don’t miss the chance to climb the tower for panoramic views of Lake Geneva, especially in the warmer months from May to September. Whether you’re attending a service or simply soaking in the history, there’s plenty to admire in this significant structure.
