Grossmünster on Postcard

"Grossmünster: Zurich's Twin Towers According to legend, Zurich’s most iconic landmark was commissioned by Charlemagne. While Fraumünster, across the Limmat, draws onlookers with its stained-glass windows by Chagall, Grossmünster recently acquired destination-worthy art of its own: German artist Sigmar Polke’s beautiful, kaleidoscopic motifs featuring Old Testament figures, installed in 2009.

The views from the top of the tower 5 CHF to go up is well worth climbing up to. The cathedral is free to enter itself and peaceful with beautiful stained glass windows, many in modern and different design. A must visit site.

Grossmünster in Zurich is a beautiful historic church with iconic twin towers. Climbing the stairs to the top rewards you with stunning panoramic views of the city, definitely worth the effort! A must-visit for both history lovers and those seeking great cityscapes.

We found this church while walking around Zurich. Admission is free, and we had the opportunity to explore this landmark. There is a fee to go upstairs, and it clearly says, "Enter at your own risk." We saved our steps to explore more places.

Amazing views over Zurich, the climb is split between small narrow winding stairs and larger wooden stairs around the tower. Would be nice to be able to go out of the barrier to take photos but definitely safer this way. Worth a visit when in Zurich for sure. Highly recommended. Was also treated to lovely choir music in the church when finally got down all the stairs when coming back.

This has got to be the most disappointing tower climb I’ve ever experienced. There’s nothing to see when you get to the top because it’s completely gated in. Yeah I was able to stretch my arm out as far as it would go and snap a basic photo, but I didn’t go up just to take a photo, I want to actually SEE the view. Not really worth it unless you enjoy the actual climbing part.

Beautiful church inside and out. They have great Saturday free organ concerns. Beautiful stained glass and lovely organ.

Many people recommended to go up but it’s really not worth CHF5 and the trip up. There were small glass windows along the way then when you’re finally up there, they are all grilles. The Cathedral in Bern was much better but it’s a 22 floors spiral stairs straight up.

10th-century Romanesque-style Protestant church in Zurich. Looks lovely from the outside. The views from the terrace are fantastic. You can see Limmat river and Fraumünster from the terrace. It's a great spot for pictures.
