Thanks to closed roads due to shooting hazards, our route led to Buechenchäppeli

The Buchen Chapel is probably the most famous building in the municipality of Brünisried in the canton of Fribourg in Switzerland. It stands idyllically in a forest in Oberholz and was first mentioned in documents in 1586. It is dedicated to Saint Anthony.

The upper part has a lot of steps and is therefore not really cool. The lower part is really recommended though!
