Nature and history

Solar Tour 2008 – Day 6: Before leaving Switzerland soon again on our way to France of course we also wanted to see something. In our tourist guide we had read about Romainmôtier, a small characteristic medieval village in the mountains. Thanks to the route of our navigation system we passed through the beautiful valley of the Orbe river and took some pictures in Les Clées. The Orbe valley is definitely a place we want to visit again in the future.
A bit later we arrived in Romainmôtier and were welcomed by some Swiss cows. The village itself offers a 10th century Romanesque abbey church, which is one of the earliest monastery settlements in Switzerland.
