The Sornetan Temple is the most original 18th-century temple surviving in the Bernese Jura. It was built between 1708 and 1709 to replace the village church of Sapran, which was abandoned after a plague epidemic, and restored in 1965 by Charles Kleiber in collaboration with Hans von Fischer. In 1963 the church and its surroundings were classified as historical monuments. It is a single-hall church, typical of the architecture of Calvinist temples, which serves as a cross hall. The importance of the church lies in the fact that the original arrangement of the pulpit and pews has been preserved.
