Incredible: a huge concrete block in the middle of the Valais wooden houses! An impressive contrast. Does St. Nicholas feel at home here?
The church was consecrated in 1971. Architect: Walter Maria Förderer

Very beautiful traditional village....well not in a different way (the village is very beautiful but not really traditional!), the church completely stands out from the rest of the architecture, being a large block of sculpted concrete! It's up to you to decide whether it's to your taste or not, but it's worth seeing because it's so special and unique!
