Valsainte Charterhouse

Highlight • Religious Site

Unfortunately not visitable, because a vow of silence has been made in the Chartreuse. But the visuals are awesome.

La Valsainte Charterhouse

Highlight • Religious Site

It is the only Charterhouse in Switzerland. The monastery is not open to the public, but it is not only the building that is impressive but also the thought of the monks' strictly religious, simple life.
