Andermatt Village & St. Peter and Paul Church
Andermatt Dorf
An old stone-and-timber village in the Ursern Valley. Its main street has a Baroque church, old inns and a newly built resort.
Old Andermatt developed along the historic Gotthard road, and stone-walled timber houses and old hotels line its main street. The Parish Church of Saints Peter and Paul, dating from the late 17th century, has an onion-domed bell tower. The old church on the hillside and the avalanche-protection forest are the village's landmarks. In recent years, an Egyptian businessman has invested in the Andermatt Swiss Alps resort, which has built a five-star hotel, a golf course and a concert hall on the far side of the railway station. The old village can be explored on foot in about an hour, so it is ideal for a plan on the day you arrive.
