Temporary exhibition: Builders

July 9 to December 12, 2021

(Exhibition in French and German)

Come and discover how buildings were constructed in the Middle Ages in the Abbey Church of Payerne, the protagonists on the building sites, their trades and their way of working, as well as the methods used to restore thousand-year-old buildings.

This exhibition for young and old also offers the chance to try your hand at building round or pointed arches, tile roofs and other assemblies.

A visit to the temporary exhibition is included with admission to the Abbey Church Visitor Tour.
