How did a community like Ligerz come to have such a large church?
In 1417, the inhabitants of Schafis, Ligerz, and Kleintwann were granted permission to build their own chapel.
In 1482, the small church was replaced by a large pilgrimage church, which, endowed with relics from Rome and a special indulgence granted by 15 cardinals, became a major attraction for the faithful.
