Dedicata a San Pietro e all'immagine emblematica di Ginevra, che domina dalla collina della Città Vecchia, la cattedrale è anche il simbolo dell'influenza della Roma protestante.La presenza di una cattedrale e di un complesso religioso sul sito di Saint-Pierre è attestata fin dal IV secolo d.C.. Fino all'XI secolo, la struttura si è evoluta in un unico edificio, ma è nel XII secolo che il primo principe vescovo di Ginevra, Arducius de Faucigny, iniziò la costruzione dell'attuale cattedrale, una fase che durò circa un secolo, dal 1150 al 1250. Le torri che dominano la città di Ginevra, il porto, il quartiere internazionale e i tetti possono essere visitate acquistando un biglietto presso la cattedrale.

Inaugurated in 1907, its function was to transport the curists from the large hotels in upper Evian to the spring, the thermal refreshment bar and the thermal establishment (today's Palais Lumière).This electrical traction funicular railway without cogs was built in several sections between 1907 and 1913 by the Lausanne engineer Koller for a subsidiary of the Société des eaux minérales. It transports the tourist clientele from the quays (port, thermal establishment and casino) to the large hotels (Splendide, Royal, Ermitage) via the Buvette Cachat (the thermal refreshment bar). It is called "the small Evian metro" because it serves six stations which are decorated with beveled earthenware tiles. Two cars with five compartments each run on the 750-metre line, including 140 metres underground. Closed in 1969, the funicular railway was started up again during summer 2002 after six years of renovation work. It belongs to the city of Evian and is listed as a historical monument. The funicular is a rare piece of European railway heritage and is one of only three survivors of listed funiculars from the 19th and 20th centuries. The lower station is located rue du port, behind the Palais Lumière. The upper station is at the level of the Grange au lac. Departure: every 20 minutes from both stations. Three intermediate stations: Sources - Mateirons - Hotel Royal. A refreshment bar is open at the Funicular top station from end of June to mid-September from 10.30 am to 7.30pm. Closed in case of rain. Home cooking at any time: toasted sandwich with salad, dish of the day, savory/sweet pancakes, ice cream, lemonade...
