EPFL meditation space: La Géode
This interreligious space at EPFL is located on the first floor of the Centre Midi.
This place of silence, which is open at all times, is designed to be sober and beautiful in order to respond to the need that everyone may have to find a quiet place.
Everyone is welcome here: believers of every religion, non-believers seeking answers to their questions and seekers of meaning...
Silence is respected outside the regular periods of group meetings:
- on Tuesdays from 7.15am to 8.00am for the GBU
- on Tuesdays from 12.15pm to 12.45pm for the celebration of the Eucharist
- Wednesday from 12.15pm to 12.45pm for meditation
- on Thursday from 12.15pm to 12.45pm for the prayer of Taizé
