Jesuitenkirche (Jesuit Church)
Jesuitenkirche (Jesuit Church) Review
Constructed in 1666-77, this Baroque church with a symmetrical entrance is flanked by two onion-dome towers, added in 1893. Inside, its vast interior, restored to its original splendor, is a dramatic explosion of gilt, marble, and epic frescoes. Nearby is the Renaissance Regierungsgebäude (Government Building), seat of the cantonal government.
