Benedictine Convent of St John at Müstair,Switzerland.


The Convent of Müstair, which stands in a valley in the Grisons, is a good example of Christian monastic renovation during the Carolingian period. It has Switzerland's greatest series of figurative murals, painted c. A.D. 800, along with Romanesque frescoes and stuccoes.
Thank you Rosmarie for the scenic site card and nice Postcrossing stamps.
