Schwyz
Passage to St Martin

The building on the left is the Kerchel, a 16th-century ossuary, topped by the Michaelskapelle. This ossuary probably stood in the same place before and may have been part of the Romanesque church of 1121. The chapel on the right is the Heiligkreuzkapelle. Both of these old buildings were spared from the fire that ravaged Schwyz in 1642.
