This friendly village on the shore of Lake Geneva has narrow streets and is definitely worth a short stopover. On a small square with a fountain stands a white church with a beautiful Romanesque portal, decorated with arabesques, with choir stalls made of carved wood and a vault painted with floral motifs. The banks of the lake, dotted with brightly colored fishermen's houses, are ideal for a nice walk. A mighty castle rises above the vine-covered slopes just outside the village.

The Alignement mégalithique de Lutry in Switzerland is a fascinating Neolithic megalithic site consisting of 23 menhirs divided into two segments. Discovered in 1984 and reconstructed in 1986, the stones are placed next to each other with almost no gaps, which is unique. Some of the menhirs have human forms and engravings, suggesting that they may have had a ritual function. The largest stones are up to 3 meters high, while others are no higher than 80 cm. This site offers an intriguing insight into the prehistoric culture and rituals of the region.
