The building dates from before the 9th century. It is the oldest parish church and the only baroque church in Zurich. It is difficult to miss its clock, whose dial is the largest in Europe. It measures 8.70 m in diameter. Until 1911, the bell tower was used as a fire lookout tower. It houses five bells, the largest of which weighs more than 6 tons. Inside, the choir dates back to the 13th century and most of the furniture and decoration to the 18th century. Rudolf Brun (1290-1360), who was the first mayor of the town, is buried here.

L'église est à découvrir au fil du parcours dans le centre . L'horloge est immense et l'heure se lit également depuis l'autre rive !
Ne manquez pas les petites rues en contrebas du clocher, avec des maisons typiques
