Zermatt. St.Mauricius Church

Located in the heart of Zermatt, on the aptly named Kirchplatz (Church Square) is the parish church of St. Mauritius.
The church was built in 1913 and has a tall clock tower which is impressive, though I didn't find the inside particularly memorable.
The church is home to a yodelling mass to mark the start of the Folklore Festival held each year in August.

It is amazing how well we are able to worship as we please in the United States. I always love being able to see all of the places of worship on the street. It is incredible to see how many different faiths there are. It would be really cool to be able to attend lots of places of worship to be able to become more cultured and see what people believe.
