Switzerland

In today's Switzerland there were only two commanderies: the commandery of La Chaux (Cossonay) attested from 1223 and that of Geneva (Quartier de Rive), first mentioned in 1277. Other religious houses were subordinate to them, the so-called écarts v. a. in Cologny, Bénex (Gem. Prangins) and Entremont (Gem. Yvonand). All of these branches belonged to the Ballei (or Preceptory) Burgundy, a sub-province of the province of France. After the abolition of the order in 1312, its goods came to the order of the Hospital of St. John in Jerusalem (Johanniter). As a result, La Chaux became a Hospitaller Commandery and ownership of the Geneva Commandery passed to the Hospitallers in Compesières.
