A pretty chapel with a tall bell tower, dating from the 13th century in Chavannes-sur-Moudon

A beautiful castle, with free access to the battlements. Inside is the Glass Museum and a café.

Very beautiful city to visit

The Church of Saint-Pierre-aux-liens (1937-1939), designed by architect Fernand Dumas, is one of the major buildings of the Saint-Luc Group and a testament to its ambitions to revive sacred art. The architect planned the almost exclusive use of glass for the interior design. The altars, communion table, pulpit, and chandeliers were made by the Labouret workshop in Paris, which, along with glassmakers François Décorchemont and Félix Gaudin, invented the glass slab (1928). The church choir is adorned with a vast composition by Emilio Maria Beretta that covers the entire wall of the flat chevet. This glass painting depicts the deliverance of Saint Peter by an angel who frees him from prison. The non-figurative stained-glass windows were designed by Yoki (alias Émile Aebischer) and created in collaboration with glassmaker Michel Eltschinger. They used two different techniques: the rose window of the gallery (1969) is made of glass slabs, while the stained-glass windows of the nave are made of lead mesh, of variable width (1979).

The abbey "La Fille-Dieu" is a place of silence and prayer. It is located directly on the Way of St. James. Even today, some nuns still live in the monastery and practice their faith here. The Benedictine nuns have been at home here continuously since 1268. Important! The religious community is happy to offer travelers accommodation and sells homemade delicacies in the monastery shop. This includes an aromatic honey mustard that is made according to an old recipe found in the monastery. While the nuns hold their devotions in the church, it is open to the public. Silence and respect are the top priority.

Very nice. There are often dogs out walking.

The church tower of Saint-Etienne was once an integral part of the fortifications. Easily recognizable by its solid construction and the loopholes on the sides. In the tower passage there is an interesting information board stating that Wolfgang Amadé Mozart and his family stopped in Moudon in 1766 on their journey through Switzerland.

Again and again, shallow cascades tame the flowing Broye, creating swirling photogenic moments. At low tide, pretty stone banks appear, which are used by birds, amphibians and humans alike.
