Alte Kirche Wollishofen, Baroque church in District 2, Switzerland
The Alte Kirche Wollishofen features a rectangular hall design with a polygonal choir closure and a prominent ridge turret on its gabled roof.
The church was constructed in 1702 to replace an earlier chapel from 1281, serving the farming village of Wollishofen which belonged to St. Peter and Paul parish.
The church windows display a complete cycle of stained glass artwork created by Max Hunziker between 1948 and 1958, representing religious themes.
Visitors can access the church through the southern open hall or the eastern side portal, with regular religious services held throughout the week.
The walnut pulpit from 1702 exhibits intricate inlay work and bears a biblical inscription from Galatians chapter 3.
