This is one of the churches in Chur,Switzerland. We stayed in Chur before venturing off to Vals


This is another Peter Zumthor building and its a wood shelter protecting some Roman Ruins. The ruins are the low masonry walls at the bottom of the image




This picture was taken on our way the St. Benedict chapel by Zumthor.




Approaching St. Benedict's Chapel


To the right is St. Benedicts chapel. It's a beautiful little chapel sited high within the Swiss Alps. Its amazing how it blends in with its context and the type of construction is similar to the local vernacular architecture


The interior of the Chapel. It is very simple construction but designed in a very elegant way. And the quality of light was amazing


Looking down into the valley from the chapel.
