Tower of the Old Church of Fayon

Tower of the Old Church of Fayon is the last remaining structure of the sunken town. It rises above the blue waters, creating a surreal image, especially when water levels are low. The surrounding canyon and ochre hills highlight its isolation and melancholic beauty. The bell tower serves as a nesting place for birds and a landmark for kayakers and boats. The submerged ruins remind visitors of the town’s history and the dramatic displacement of its inhabitants.
