Chur
Martinskirche

St. Martin's Church was built on the remains of a Carolingian church. Completed in 1491, it became a reformed municipal church in 1526. Its bell tower, built in 1509, was given its spire in 1917-1918. On its south wall are three stained glass windows from 1919, works by Augusto Giacometti, a painter born in Val Bregaglia, the valley that descends from the Upper Engadine into Italy.
