Description
Devout creatures, cheeky faces Whether sad, twisted, bound, hunted, voracious, or constantly in the air – there are animals in the Grossmünster. Many are static, decorating a column or rarely a window. Only a few are lively and high up. But most tell stories of devout life. Church mice? Pulpit swallows? More like Sigmar Polke's ram or Charlemagne's horse. We will take a walk through the cloister and the church. Immerse yourself in the world of animals created by stone and glass artists and enjoy the imagination spanning eight centuries.Highlights
- Guided tour of the Grossmünster
