The two towers of this Romanesque church could well be Zürich’s most prominent landmark.

The Grossmünster, originally a monastic church, was begun at the start of the 12th century and was finished just over a century later.

Anyone keen on medieval architecture will be taken with the main portal and its sculpted capitals bearing grotesques.

The crypt, the oldest part of the church, is also original and has faded frescoes by Hans Leu the Elder from the 1400s.
