    The natural vantage point at an altitude of 653m offers a beautiful view of the Vully ridge and Lake Murten. About 2100 years ago, the Tigurines, one of the four sub-tribes of the Helvetii inhabiting the Central Plateau, probably settled here. What was the function of the fortified square, the so-called oppidum? In purely hypothetical terms, it could have had a protective function.
