The church will remain closed for the foreseeable future as the rock needs to be extensively secured.

According to a new report, appropriate drilling must be carried out in order to install the anchors with a length of five to six meters. There is a risk that stones or parts of the old shotcrete protection will become loose and fall down.

All paths around the rock church are closed, there is a very high risk of falling rocks.

From the viewing platform next to the bell tower you have a great view over the city.
Even the dog is allowed through the rock passage, through the church and onto the platform.

At first glance, the church looks very small, but on entering the visitor realizes that it is unexpectedly large. The climb is definitely worth it.
