Capital of Geneva's main attractions

St. Pierre Cathedral (cathédrale St.Pierre) is located in the middle of the old part of the city, and the top of the spire is very noticeable. The cathedral was originally built in the 12th-13th century. After several renovations, the architectural style gradually blended with the characteristics of each era.

St. Pierre's Cathedral was originally home to the Kelten. This place is one of the largest Celtic cultural relics in Europe. The founder of Protestantism, Jean Calvin (1509-1564), began to publicize his religious ideas in this church. Due to Calvin's activities, Geneva is known as "Protestant Rome." The church has Calvin's used chairs and round sculpted seats for priests. A 157-step walk takes you to the high tower on the north side of the cathedral. From here you can see the panorama of Lake Leman and the city of Geneva.

Calvin Lecture

The lecture hall near Peter's Cathedral was a chapel in the 5th century AD and a parish church in the 13th century.

Here, people have listened to the theologians John Calvin and Théodore de Beze; from 1552 to 1558 John Knox (later together with Thomas Bardley to create the Oxford Library) stayed in Geneva. During this time, the aisle was also spoken in this church. Later, it was here that Miles Coverdale directed the translation of the first English Bible - the Geneva Bible.

Today, the Calvin Lecture Hall is still a holy place to welcome believers from the Scottish Church, the Dutch Church and the Italian New Church.
