Einsiedeln
The magnificent Baroque construction of the monastery and the chapel (with Black Madonna) are the main attraction most visitors come to Einsiedeln to see.
The Salve Regina, a choral song sung in several voices, is sung in the chapel daily at 4.30 pm. The collegiate library with its century old book culture can be toured daily by the public. The monastery has bred its own horses since the Middle Ages. The "Cavalli della Madonna" stalls are sometimes open to the public. The Diorama Bethlehem, a nativity scene with over 450 wooden figures dressed in oriental clothing is open in December from 1 - 4 pm.
