Collegiate Church of the Assumption of Mary, Romont

Highlight • Religious Site

"Closer to Heaven".
Romont's collegiate church dates from the 13th and 15th centuries. It is dedicated to the Assumption of Mary. In the choir there are choir stalls, whose wooden seats were formerly reserved for the clergy. The decoration of the oak and walnut furniture is remarkable. It is said that the fantastic figures of the lower parts inspired John Howe for The Lord of the Rings. The collegiate church alone forms a history of stained glass with incredible works from the Middle Ages. Source: fribourg.ch/de/romontregion/architektur-und-denkmaeler/stiftskirche

Romont Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

The beautiful city of Romont offers countless photo opportunities and was founded in the Middle Ages. The location on a hill, embedded in vast forests and fields, is unique. The many attractions such as the castle, the massive city walls or the Gothic church make Romont a worthwhile destination. Strolling through the narrow streets is a great experience.

Vaulruz Church

Highlight • Religious Site

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.
