Walking along the beautiful lakeside, we decided to cross the road and visit this small church. Upon entering, we were quite surprised to see a beautiful fresco depicting the 'Passion and Crucifixion of Christ' covering the whole wall of the nave. As it turns out, this Renaissance fresco defined by its expressiveness and vividness is Switzerland's most famous.

A great and high waterfall (+100m). You can walk along (5min from a parking) or a bit more if you want to see it from a sort of natural balcony. The village has a restaurant and a small typical shop. Really nice place and the valley is great. That takes a day to visit it.
