Description
In 1914/1915, Protestant employees of the fort administration were looking for a place to hold their church services. The Evangelical Reformed Valley Church of Ursern, the ‘Soldiers’ Church’, still surrounded by open fields at the time, was built with donations from the Gotthard garrison and a generous confirmation levy. The simple nave has a crippled hipped roof and an octagonal tower. The entrance is supported by wooden pillars and on the south side there is an extension with a reading room.
