Church Viamala
Thusis Reformed Church


Description
The church was built by Andreas Bühler from Gmünd/Austria in the pre-Reformation period 1491-1506. It is in the late Gothic style and was originally a Marienkirche. It was renovated in 1792, 1814, 1905, 1956 and 2008. It has a single nave. The choir has a star-ribbed vault with gilded stripes. The Gothic lancet windows are unadorned and the tracery is differently shaped. Above the western entrance portal is a Gothic fish-bubble window with monochrome light-colored glass. The old choir stalls have been preserved next to the door. It now serves as a shelf for information leaflets.
The tower adjoins the church to the north and dates back to 1727. The last fire, which broke out in the tower in 2002, severely damaged the onion dome. It was reconstructed true to the original. The church needed completely new bells after the fire. Two of the broken bells are still preserved: One stands outside between the church and the mortuary, another in front of Migros.
Opening hours
The church is open during the day and is freely accessible.
