Points of interest

Chapelle du Buth
Chapelle du Buth
Elle est également appelée chapelle Notre-Dame-des-Neiges car d’après la légende, la Vierge aurait choisi elle-même son emplacement en y faisant tomber des flocons de neige au mois d’août. Bâtie en 1684, elle possède un plan octogonal ainsi qu’un toit à l’impériale surplombé d’un campanile. La clef de voûte est décorée des armes des fondateurs : les frères Castella André-Joseph (curé de Neirivue), Jean (prieur de Broc) et Jacques (lieutenant). On retrouve d’ailleurs leurs armoiries sur le retable baroque datant de 1685.

Lessoc
Lessoc
The village of Lessoc is in the federal inventory of sites of national importance. It is made up of a dense network of houses and farms from the golden age of Gruyère, with strong presence of late gothic decor (window and door frames) modeled after those of the medieval city of Gruyères. It is one of the rare villages in the l’Intyamon to have a square with a remarkable covered fountain.

Banneret House
Banneret House
Built in 1666, this house was restored in 1962. It is one of the most well preserved homes in the Intyamon. Its magnificient cermonial façade has remarkably sculpted embracing window and door frames. The interior features a beautiful 1664 molasse wood burning stove and lavish crown molded ceilings.
