This church is one of the most interesting examples of Carolingian art found in southern Switzerland. Built of natural stone, the church impresses with its austere Romanesque style. Although it was first mentioned in 1153 in the papal bull of Pope Eugene III, it was already over a hundred years old at that time. During the excavations carried out during the last restoration work (1963-1967), François Olivier Dubuis, abbot and cantonal archaeologist, was able to confirm that the entire building dates back to the first half of the 11th century. Only the two floors of the octagonal tower, made of brick and tuff, were built somewhat later.

Quiet place without cars

In the lively old town of Sion you will find a variety of restaurants, shops and pretty buildings. Here and there you can also see remnants of the Middle Ages, such as the two castles Valère and Tourbillion, which dominate the hills above the city. Every Friday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. the market takes place in the narrow streets, and it is worth a visit, especially for gourmets.

Here you can cycle along a quiet cycle path between the golf course and the Rhone. On one side you can see the orchards and on the other side you can admire the steep slopes with their equally neat vines.

Three-aisled Romanesque church from the 11th century with an octagonal crossing tower. It is built from rubble stones from the limestone, marl and siliceous slate found in the area.
