April 22, 2025, Église d'Ursy

Before the Reformation, the parish included several Waldensian villages such as Chavannes/Md, Brenles, and part of the town of Moudon. In 1846, given the poor condition of the church in Morlens, the problem became urgent, and work began quickly. The plans for our church are based on the architecture of Saint-Martin, which was built during the same period. It is a neo-Gothic building made of molasse. The high altar, the work of Christinaz, as well as the pulpit and side altars, are made of Carrara marble. Consecrated on October 12, 1869, by Bishop Marilley, the church was restored internally in 1933 and 1979, and externally in 1975. A stained-glass window depicting St. Maurice, the work of Broillet, was placed in the central bay of the apse in 1938. The inauguration of the new church took place in 1982, consecrated by Bishop Bullet. The altar and pulpit were designed by Father Guillet, former parish priest, and sculpted by Paul Richoz. The stained-glass windows are by Cottet. Source: https://www.upierroches.ch/paroisse%20Ursy.htm

Near the Gruyère lake and the Sarine, on the last non-hilly sections of the Plateau, you can see and admire the first peaks of the Alps.

Rue, the smallest town in Europe, boasts an exceptional heritage. Take the time to visit its cobbled streets, and discover the castle, churches, and art galleries.

Villarimboud is located at 756 m above sea level, six kilometres northeast of the district capital of Romont. The village stretches along the broad ridge north of the valley of the upper Glâne, on the Molasse plateau of the Fribourg Mittelland.

Nestled in the heart of green Gruyère, the charming little village of Vaulruz has, in addition to its castle, a beautiful parish church whose bell tower is reminiscent of other sanctuaries in the region, such as Bulle, Riaz or Prez-vers- Noréaz.
