La Tour de L'Abbaye du Lac de Joux

Guided tour of the oldest monument in the Vallée de Joux

This building, built in 1326, was the first inhabited place in the Valley. Despite its eventful history, the Tour de L'Abbaye still stands proudly today and serves as the bell tower for the present church.

Following recent renovations and new archaeological discoveries, it is now open to the public for guided tours from April 1 to October 31.
