Einsiedeln Abbey

The magnificent baroque monastery building and the Chapel of Grace with the Black Madonna are the main attractions that many visitors come to see in Einsiedeln. The Salve Regina, a choral song in several voices, is sung in the chapel every day at 4.30pm. Guided tours of the monastery library, with its century-old book culture, are held daily. The monastery has bred its own horses since the Middle Ages; parts of the stables of the “Cavalli della Madonna” are open to the public.

Tours of the monastery are available daily, organized by Einsiedeln Tourism.
