St. George's Chapel
Walenstadt, CH
St. George's Chapel was probably built towards the end of the first millennium, making it the oldest Romanesque chapel in Eastern Switzerland. It is also the only example of a building with a double vaulted nave that has survived in Switzerland. The apse and the double-nave hall are the oldest parts of the chapel. The present tower stands in place of the porch on the west side of the chapel and was built after 1655. The original Romanesque part is covered with wall paintings.
