Lots of things to visit and the place to take a break and drink a good glass of wine from the cellars of the town

Even if the inconspicuous brick building at 8 Rue de Veyey is not one of the most interesting sights in Bulle, it is still a real eye-catcher (seen from the "Place des Alpes")! It is hard to imagine what the furnishings in its rooms are like.

The church tower of Saint-Etienne was once an integral part of the fortifications. Easily recognizable by its solid construction and the loopholes on the sides. In the tower passage there is an interesting information board stating that Wolfgang Amadé Mozart and his family stopped in Moudon in 1766 on their journey through Switzerland.

Again and again, shallow cascades tame the flowing Broye, creating swirling photogenic moments. At low tide, pretty stone banks appear, which are used by birds, amphibians and humans alike.

Magnificent place from which you can imagine the history of Moudon from the edge of the Broye and its wooden bridge.
