Made perhaps in 1160, this famous church is rather well-known as the  as the place where John Calvin gave his holy speech during the middle of the 16th century. In fact you can still find the seat from which he delivered this speech inside the church. In 1563 the place was transformed from a catholic to a protestant place of worship by him.

But the chair isn’t all. There are several other attractions worth seeing here. The altars, statues, paintings and furniture have been removed by Calvin’s followers but the stained windows of glass still remain. These and the rest of the architecture of the church is worth noting and very beautiful.

Although it has seen a lot of destruction, much of its beauty still remains.  A view from atom the north tower of the church is a must. You can see Geneva in all its glory from this vantage point. Also, visit the popular attractions in the city by following Geneva itinerary 1 day.
