Church Arosa Lenzerheide
Chapel of St. Cassian
Beschreibung
Finally he found a chapel and a courtyard, but both buildings were locked. The man tried to reach the next village, but in vain. He froze to death in the winter storm. The authorities then decided that someone should always live on the remote farm and that it was his duty to ring the little bell in the chapel in the morning, at midday and in the evening, so that no one would go astray. Even today, on the ancient route over the Lenzerheide and the Alpine passes, there is a chapel where the man had sought refuge, and even today there is a farm opposite the chapel. The current farm is probably around 200 years old, the present chapel dates from 1513, and the ground plans of sacred buildings from the sixth century can still be seen next door. We can only hope that a small bell was already ringing at that time to show people the way.
