Lutry
Temple of Lutry

After the Reformation of 1536, the Catholic church became a Protestant temple and around 1570 renovation work began. Inside, the Lyon painter Humbert Mareschet redid the vaults in 1577 with a Mannerist decoration typical of the Italian Renaissance, where animals and plants fill the whole space. Take the time to admire the details of this masterpiece of grotesque art!
