Above: Brother Klaus Field Chapel, 2007 Wachendorf, Eifel, Germany The field chapel dedicated to Swiss Saint Nicholas von der Flüe (1417–1487), known as Brother Klaus, was commissioned by farmer Hermann-Josef Scheidtweiler and his wife Trudel and largely constructed by them, with the help of friends, acquaintances and craftsmen on one of their fields above the village.
Photos above and below by Pietro Savorelli. The interior of the chapel room was formed out of 112 tree trunks, which were configured like a tent. The chapel floor was covered with lead, which was melted on site in a crucible and manually ladled onto the floor. Below: Swiss Sound Box, Swiss Pavilion, Expo 2000 Hanover, Germany.
