Pilgrimmage Church at Einseildeln

Continuing on toward Lucerne, we stopped by Einsieldeln, and on the way saw our first open mountain country. We saw open green fields with yellow wildflowers a nd wooded hills. The fog prevented any view of the distant mountains. Through a few breaks in the clouds we caught a view of snow.

Einsieldeln was well worth the visit. The pilgrimmage church is unimpressive on the outside but magnificent on the inside. It is ornately carved and decorated with a large carved figure of Christ throned. The organ was very beautiful. June 1, 1967
