St. Peter is one of the main churches of Zurich's old town, on a hill beside the Lindenhof, where Roman Turicum lay. Its 64 m tower belongs to the city and carries four clock faces, each about 8.7 m across; for centuries it gave Zurich its official time. The spire was re-covered in 1996 with 42,000 larch shingles.
The Fraumünster is a church on the left bank of the Limmat in Zurich, standing on the site of an abbey for noblewomen founded in 853 by Louis the German for his daughter Hildegard. Today a Reformed church, it has a slender green spire, and its choir holds five stained-glass windows designed by Marc Chagall and installed in 1970.
The Grossmünster is a Romanesque church on the Limmat in Zurich, built from around 1100 and inaugurated around 1220, with twin towers first raised in 1487–1492. Huldrych Zwingli launched the Reformation in Zurich from here in 1520. Inside are a Romanesque crypt and stained-glass windows by Augusto Giacometti, and visitors can climb the Karlsturm tower.
