HISTORIC BUILDINGS

Cartigny TempleCartigny, once caught between the sovereignties of Geneva, Savoy, Sardinia, and Bern, became part of Geneva in 1754.
The village, initially Catholic, adopted the Reformed religion after its integration.
The temple, built in 1772 on the site of the medieval Saint-Georges church, features a baroque door with Geneva's arms and a clock. It underwent renovations in 1945, 1966, and again in 2000 after oak beams were destroyed by fungus.
