    At the weekend you can also book a tour of the tower and look over Solothurn from the very top.

      The early Classicist church building dedicated to the martyrs Ursus and Victor was begun in 1762 by Gaetano Matteo Pisoni from Ascona and completed in 1773 by his nephew Paolo Antonio Pisoni on a site where two previous buildings had probably stood since the early Middle Ages. The interior is decorated with stucco work by Francesco Pozzi.
      The extensive cathedral treasure includes the Hornbach Sacramentary, a statue of Mary and a manuscript that was created around 983 in the Reichenau monastery.
      The 66 meter high onion tower was inhabited by a tower guard for a long time. There is a drawing by Peter Thumb from 1708, which indicates that a second tower for the previous collegiate church, also not realized, was under discussion.
