The Romanesque church of St. Sulpice in the canton of Vaud was built by the Abbey of Cluny in the 11th and 12th centuries.
It was initially dedicated to Saint Sulpice and later to Mary Magdalene. After the occupation by Bern in 1536, the church became Protestant and came into the possession of the city of Lausanne.
The priory disappeared after 1536 or was repurposed.
The nave collapsed after the Reformation and was not rebuilt. The church is today a national historical monument.
