Rhine-Reuss-Rhôneweg: Münster - Ernen

We walk along the Rotten (Rhône) to Reckingen, where in the middle of the 18th century, local altar carvers and painters, organ builders and bell founders built the baroque pearl of Goms within two years with St. Mary's Church. We stay at the height of the villages on the sunny slope to make a pilgrimage to the solitary chapel in the Ritzingerfeld. Together with the distant Weisshorn (4505 m), it is the photo subject of the entire tour. After Niederwald we leave the Rhone and the railway line to find the Heidenhaus in Mühlebach, where Prince-Bishop and Cardinal Matthäus Schiner was born. He was a co-signatory of the bull of banishment against Martin Luther, Papabile, papal and imperial adviser. Over the three pillars of the Erner gallows we find our way to the most beautiful village in Valais with a magnificent village square and one of the most distinguished rural townscapes in Switzerland. The mother church (St. George) of the lower Goms in Ernen holds some treasures, James looks fragmentarily from the side wall.
