Chagall and Giacometti stained glass windows at Zurich's Fraumünster church

The Fraumünster church in Zurich, founded in 853 by Louis the German, is a Reformed church known for Zwingli's 67 Articles that abolished Catholic Mass and ordered destruction of religious images. Despite this iconoclastic history, the church now houses remarkable stained glass windows by Marc Chagall and Augusto Giacometti. Chagall created a five-part cycle in the choir and a rose window in the south transept, installed in 1970 when he was 83, depicting scenes from the life of Jesus, Jacob, and the prophets, each associated with a single color: green/blue for Earth, red/yellow for Heaven. Giacometti's over-nine-meter window from the 1920s in the north transept features God, Jesus, the four evangelists, and eight prophets amid multicolored angels. Both commissions were anonymous private donations, reflecting Protestant discretion. The church charges 5 Swiss francs (€4.65) for entry.
