St. Ursen Cathedral

St Ursen Cathedral is one of the oldest churches in the city of Solothurn, Switzerland. It is a Romanesque-style structure, featuring high walls and a tower that towers nearly 150 feet into the sky. Within the walls are the intricately designed interior, covered in frescoes, floral motifs and remarkable altarpieces. The atmosphere inside the church has a distinctly mysterious atmosphere; watching the changing light play off the surfaces and taking in the presence of the spiritual artifacts makes for an interesting visit. The building's outdoor courtyard is an imposing space, but at the same time it is beautiful and welcoming. Visitors should take time to explore the grounds surrounding the church, providing a peaceful walk with stellar views of Solothurn. Photographers should look out for the stunning front façade which catches the light in interesting ways during different times of day.
