Lonely Planet review for Cathédrale de Notre Dame

The Gothic Cathédrale de Notre Dame, arguably the finest in Switzerland, stands proudly at the heart of the vieille ville. Raised in the 12th and 13th centuries on the site of earlier, humbler churches, it lacks the lightness of French Gothic buildings but is remarkable nonetheless. Pope Gregory X, in the presence of Rudolph of Habsburg (the Holy Roman Emperor) and an impressive following of European cardinals and bishops, consecrated the church in 1275.
