Frauenkirch 1
Grisons

The Frauenkirch is a small church, beautifully situated above the valley in Davos Frauenkirch, Switzerland. It was built in the mid-14th century by the Walsers and dedicated to Our Lady, that is, Mary of Nazareth, the mother of Jesus.

The Walsers immigrated around 1280, at the end of an avalanche. In 1602, the Frauenkirche was destroyed by an avalanche and rebuilt the following year on the same site, this time with a large avalanche wedge. Why did the Walsers build a church where large avalanches still fall in snowy winters? This is probably because the place has been considered a place of power since time immemorial, a place where people experienced heaven and earth in a special way. Frauenkirch is popular for weddings.
Of particular note is the colored organ installed by Georg Hammer in 1823.
Religious service: Christmas Eve and various cultural services throughout the year
Opening hours: Open during the day from 9am to 5pm.

A Frauenkirch é uma pequena igreja, belamente situada acima do vale, em Davos Frauenkirch, Switzerland. Foi construída em meados do século XIV pelos Walsers e dedicada a Nossa Senhora, isto é, Maria de Nazaré, a mãe de Jesus.

Os Walsers imigraram por volta de 1280, no final de uma avalanche. Em 1602, a Frauenkirche foi destruída por uma avalanche e reconstruída no ano seguinte no mesmo local, desta vez com uma grande cunha de avalanche. Porque é que os Walser construíram uma igreja onde ainda caem grandes avalanches em invernos com muita neve? Provavelmente porque o local foi considerado um local de poder desde tempos imemoriais, um lugar onde as pessoas experienciavam o céu e a terra de uma forma especial. A Frauenkirch é popular para casamentos.

Digno de nota é o órgão colorido instalado por Georg Hammer em 1823.

Serviço religioso: Véspera de Natal e vários serviços culturais por ano

Horário de funcionamento: Aberto durante o dia das 9h às 17h.
