Very pretty work which summarizes part of the history of Switzerland. This is a change from classic museums with archives and paintings.
The site is accessible by stroller and in a beautiful wooded park with relaxation activities.

Wall 9m high and 99m long attached to the ancient walls of the XVI. It shows the figures of Guillaume Farel, John Calvin, Theodore of Beza and John Knox. Despite its vastness and its fame for the history behind it, as a monument, there are others more striking.

Went to this park to let our child run around and play in the large sand pit there. Would recommend taking you children there when the weather is good. The wall itself is impressive for it's size and significance.

It very good and interesting to visit, it gives a brief history with timelines etc of what took place.
Wall is located with the park that is also great to see with other monuments to see.
I would certainly put this on the list of things to see in Geneva.

Great place to relax. Wall is impressive. While we were there the Christmas market was on adjacent to it with a variety of food being sold in small shacks. There were many little bon fires around to keep warm as well.

There is a lot of history behind the reformation wall It is built into the old city walls of Geneva, and the monument's location there is designed to represent the fortifications', and therefore the city of Geneva's, integral importance to the Reformation. It is in the Parc De Bastions so you can kill 2 birds with one stone here.

As far as memorials go, this is a really nice one. So many memorials are short on information, but this one has a reasonable amount of historical information to make sense of its importance. It's also just a lovely, well maintained wall in a nice park.

This was a piece of history we hadn't heard about before. We recognized the names Calvin and Knox but not some of the other Reformers. Well worth visiting.

I did the walking tour to see all of the aspects of the Reformation attractions in Geneva. The Reformation wall was one of the furthest attractions from all the others (about a 7 min walk from St. Pierre Cathedral) but totally worth it. My pictures are just a section of the wall. It is quite impressive. All of these attractions along the “Walk the Reformation” path are well worth the effort. There is a lot to learn about Christian history through these attractions.
