Lausanne's Absolute Essentials

Lausanne blends medieval heritage with its status as the Olympic Capital. The car-free Old Town features the 13th-century Gothic Cathedral of Notre Dame and the 14th-century Tour de l'Ale, a remnant of former city fortifications. Along Lake Geneva, the Olympic Museum documents the history of the games, while the Ouchy district provides lakeside access via the m2 metro. Notable landmarks include the Renaissance-style Palais de Rumine and the 15th-century Château Saint-Maire, the seat of the cantonal government.
