If the summer has taken some time to arrive, it’s been particularly hot these last days. Our humans are on holiday, and they decided to spend a few days in Solothurn, one of the most beautiful baroque city in Switzerland. See instead an excerpt from their walk in the old town.
Basel Gate :
St. Ursus Cathedral :
The view from the tower of the St. Ursus Cathedral : it’s 66 metres high, and 11 bells are suspended in its bell tower. After climbing 249 steps, you will be rewarded with an extraordinary view of the city and its surroundings.
Clock tower :
Some houses:
Our humans then left the city to go to a place in the region that is called mystical : the Verena gorge and hermitage.
The entrance to the Verena Gorge is about 20 minutes walk from the old town of Solothurn. From there, a route runs along the stream and goes through the forest to the hermitage.
St Verena’s chapel :
St Martin’s chapel :
A hermit still lives there today in a small house.
We were still delighted to see our humans coming home !
