The transmission towers from my hostel room.

7743

Twilight on the central square.

7745

The walk up to the church zone, San Bastian straight ahead.

7746

A closer, clearer view.

7749

Out over the rooftops.

7750

The divergence of the church paths is a great space in its own right.

7751

Wall texture, cloud texture.

7753

A pleasantly simple door.

7755

The nave and apse. San Bastian dates from late medieval times.

7760

A rather cozy-looking pulpit.

7761

The back of the nave and the simple vestibule.

7764

The dimming daylight provided sparse illumination.

A lot of the Unterengadin church renovations seem to have taken place in 1950 or thereabouts.
