More on Romainmôtier

The village of Romainmôtier is part of the municipality of Romainmôtier-Envy, following a merger in 1970. The main sight in the village is its beautiful Romanesque buildings, particularly the Église Abbatiale de Romainmôtier, its abbey church which dates to the early 11th century.

A monastery was established here in the 15th century, but it was dissolved following the Reformation. The abbey church however survived, as did its cloister.
