Stop 15 / 16
Guillermaux Road bridge, workers’ houses and Catholic church
Built in 1920, the Guillermaux Road bridge was designed by architect Louis Bosset and is one of the first reinforced concrete bridges in Switzerland. A little further along stands a yellow and brown building, referred to as the “Beehive”. It is a fine example of workers’ housing, which began to emerge at the end of the 19th century. Opposite is a Catholic church which dates from the same period as the Beehive (1928).
