Museum Night – Northern Canton of Fribourg (Power Play)

Saturday, 9 May 2026, from 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm

For its first participation in the Fribourg Canton Museum Night, themed “Power Play,” the Payerne Abbey invites you to discover its history, architecture, and the figures who shaped the site through the world of play.

What if the Abbey became a playground?

For one evening, try out unexpected experiences: games, challenges, balance, strategy… and even a game of Mario Kart on a giant screen. A fun and offbeat way to (re)discover the site.
