Reformed Church, Protestant church in Scuol, Switzerland.
The Reformed Church in Scuol, formerly St. George's Church (Romansh Baselgia San Geer), stands on a rock ledge above the Inn. It has a single-nave nave and a three-part choir; the windows were designed in 1972 by Gian Casty, including The Good Shepherd and The Vine in the choir.
A church existed here by 1178, when it was first documented under St George; a Carolingian predecessor on the same site burned down in 1258. Around 1500 Bernhard von Puschlav was commissioned to build a Gothic church, and Scuol adopted the Reformation around 1530 under Caspar Dietegen a Porta, turning St George's into a preaching church.
The church serves as the spiritual center for the local Reformed community and its design reflects Protestant values about worship and simplicity. Walking through, you notice how faith and community life are woven into the building's purpose.
The building sits in the center of Scuol and is easy to reach on foot from most areas of town. Keep in mind this is an active place of worship, so it is worth checking visiting times or guidelines before your visit.
The church was first documented in 1178 under the name St. George's Church (Romansh: Baselgia San Geer), a name still used in the local language though rare in everyday speech. A Carolingian predecessor on the same site burned down in 1258.
