Fodor's Expert Review St-Pierre-de-Clages

Known for its 11th-century church, this village is also known as the only "book town" in Switzerland. Secondhand-book-dealers' shops are clustered around the Place and Rue de l'Eglise, and some of them, like Nico's Books, also sell titles in English. A main attraction is one of Switzerland's quirkiest mom-and-pop stores, La Potagère (3 rue de l'Eglise,  027/3064344), crammed to (and including) the rafters with local oils, vinegars, organic teas, syrups, dried fruit, and delicious jams made in-house.
