Association les Amis de la Chapelle de Saint ‑Maclou

Legend has it that its 74-meter tower was never completed due to a lack of funds.
A jewel of Gothic architecture, St. Nicholas Cathedral in Fribourg was built between 1283 and 1490.

It is possible to climb the 365 steps to reach the top of the 74-meter tower and admire the city from there.

St. Nicholas Cathedral in Fribourg boasts a rich architectural decoration. The main portal is adorned with a bas-relief depicting the Last Judgment.

The stained-glass windows, created by the Polish painter Jozef Mehoffer between 1896 and 1936, constitute one of the most important collections of Art Nouveau religious stained glass in Europe.
The ensemble was completed during the 1970s with works by the French painter Alfred Manessier.

The organ combines Classical and Romantic characteristics. The entire ensemble is the work of the local organ builder Aloys Mooser (1824-34).
His instruments quickly acquired an international reputation, attracting renowned musicians such as Franz Liszt and Anton Bruckner.
