Steinkirche Cazis, Romanesque church in Cazis, Switzerland
The Steinkirche Cazis consists of three circular stone structures connected by a glass and wooden passage to the neighboring parish house. The building opened in 2002 and uses an unconventional architectural form that differs from traditional church layouts.
The evangelical church community of Cazis bought land from a neighboring Dominican convent to build this structure. The project was a bold decision to use an entirely new architectural language for a religious building.
The space was designed to let each visitor develop a personal view of faith and community life. The three domed chambers allow people to find different areas depending on their own needs and preferences.
The location is accessible to visitors during opening hours, with access designed to accommodate people with different mobility needs. The connecting passage makes it easy to move between the different areas and the parish house.
The windows were deliberately placed to direct light in different ways: the eastern windows open to the sky, the central ones to the horizon, and the western ones to the street. This arrangement creates different light moods in each chamber and strengthens the connection between indoor and outdoor space.
