Date

Circa 1910

Location

Architecture Library, Hesburgh Libraries

The 18th century was a time of very active secular building in Berne, but the only church building of these years was the Heiliggeistkirche (1726-1729), which is an interesting example of Protestant church building during the Swiss Baroque period with stucco decoration by Joseph Anton Feuchtmayr. Niklaus Schiltknecht is listed as the architect. The church is on a historic registry.
