Ziteil, Roman Catholic pilgrimage church in Salouf, Switzerland

The Ziteil church stands at 2434 meters above sea level on a mountain ridge between Piz Curvér and Piz Toissa in the Swiss Alps.

The location gained religious significance in 1580 when local records documented an apparent manifestation of the Virgin Mary on Ziteil Alp.

The current church structure, constructed in 1959, serves as a gathering point for religious ceremonies and traditional mountain pilgrimages throughout the year.

Visitors reach the church through marked hiking trails from Salouf, requiring appropriate mountain gear and weather preparations for the high-altitude journey.

This religious structure holds the distinction of being the highest elevation pilgrimage church in Europe, positioned at 2434 meters above sea level.
