St. Peter is one of the four main churches of the old town of Zürich, Switzerland, besides Grossmünster, Fraumünster, and Predigerkirche.

St. Peter is a church located in the city of Zürich, Switzerland. It is a Roman Catholic church that is dedicated to Saint Peter, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus. The church is located in the Old Town area of Zürich, near the Limmat River. It is a prominent landmark in the city and is known for its Gothic architecture, which dates back to the 13th century. The church has a rich history and has undergone several renovations over the years. It is a popular tourist attraction in Zürich and is also used for religious services and events.

The biggest dial of all the Landmarks from Zurich. Stunning to watch during the day and astonishing through the illumination during the night.

No tickets are required to enter the church, but you won't be able to enter after 6 pm. The inside is pretty small and very quiet. You'll find signs on both sides of the church detailing the history of the church and it's significance towards the protestant reformation, especially in Switzerland. However, all the signs are in German so expect some difficulties if you don't speak German. A church associate was present in the back of the church to answer questions and help you on your visit.

St. Peter's Church in Zurich is a stunning landmark that is definitely worth a visit. The architecture is simply breathtaking, with intricate details and a mix of Gothic and Baroque styles. In addition to its impressive architecture and artwork, St. Peter's Church is also a place of spiritual significance for many people. The peaceful atmosphere and regular services make it a great place for contemplation and reflection. Overall, I highly recommend a visit to St. Peter's Church.

Very nice historical church visited as part of a tour group unique story behind the clock and if you look closely you will notice that 4oclock is written as IIII and not IV. According to the tour guide the daily work schedule was from 8a-6p and people were not as literate back then so too often people were quitting at 4 (IV) instead of 6p (VI) so they decided to eliminate any confusion and make 4p be IIII

The church has a very big clock. Nice place and monument. Very old.

It is oldest of the four main churches of Zürich. It was built on the site of a temple to Jupiter and former churches from before the 9th century. Rudolf Brun, first independent mayor of Zurich, was buried here in 1360. The Church’s steeple's clock face is the largest church clock face in Europe. Its diameter is 8.7 m. There are five bells dating from 1880 in the tower – the largest of which weighs over six tons without its clapper.. In initial days, the church tower is also used by Fire police.

I must give four stars to this church cause the interior is so simple and nothing woow. On the other hand the bell tower with biggest clock diameter in Europe makes it possible to be seen from far corners of Zurich. So you will always know what time is it.

This is a quiet holy place , less crowded. One can easily walk inside , pray and view. We went inside and also sat on chairs outside.

The church looks grand with its own plaza, where you find some benches and a nice wooden table, under tree shade. We had a nice food break there.

St. Peter is the oldest parish church in Zürich. In addition to that this church has the biggest clock face in Europe. The bells date from the 19th century. If you walk from the train station I think it will take you about 20 minutes to get here. Even though it does not attract as many visitors as the nearby churches in Zürich, it is definitely worth a visit.

One of the three representative churches of Zurich, featuring a huge clock face, it can be reached by walking down from the Linderhof Hill to see the city view of Zurich.

Beautiful, historic, ancient church with a wonderful bell toll. Take the time to walk around the roads leading to the church as there are many great picture opportunities.

the oldest Church in Zurich. Where important people work here in the past and the famous mayor was buried. It has been used as a fire watchtower in the past. History lovers can visit the tower architecture and history due to its history.

Nice place, one of tourist attractions of Zurich, in summer time locals come here to have lunch or relax

Nice historical clock. Views of the clock from many angles in the city!

Nice small church. Their claim to fam is there clock is the largest in Europe measuring in at 28’. Cool to see if in the area but don’t go out of your way. So much to see walking endlessly up and down the streets aimlessly.

One of the symbols of the Zürich skyline, this church is really beautiful. Check if you can take a guided tour of the clock tower, whose clock face is the largest in Europe. To reach the top there are about 150/160 steps: from there you can enjoy a wonderful view of the city.

Very beautiful church and it's pretty chill inside.

The church & the architecture of it was very peaceful & there was a lady inside playing some unique musical instrument inside. I would recommend to go there when the music is playing as its a treat to the ears.

St. Peter's Church is visible from all over the town along with other two Churches of Fraumunster and Grossmunster, making it an important and distinctive part of Zurich panorama. It has the biggest clock face in Europe, but I found it very simple and nothing extraordinary. Moreover, the interiors left a pretty disappointing impression when we entered. The Church is on Limmat's right bank, on an elevated position near the Lindenhof view point, so be prepared for some walking uphill

St. Peter's is a landmark that shouldn't be missed. When wondering around Zurich make sure you stop by and explore the grounds.

Simple church. One of the earliest to open...so one can start zurich tour with this one

Simple. Laid back. Not crowded. Organist was cool.

A great reformist church to visit. The organ sounds fantastic in the nave, as the surrounding walls are paneled with hardwood and render surreal acoustic effect. Look for a organ performance if you are not in a hurry, and enjoy the powerful and soul reaching play. The ancient clock on the tower is enormous and a landmark standing tall at the high grand of the city. Highly recommended!

(Translated by Google) Well respected Corona but celebrating a wedding at 3 p.m. and not later is strange and very tiring if the party has to continue with an aperitif and dinner. Make an effort Protestant Church !! 🤔 (Original) Corona bien respectée mais célébrer une noce à 15h et non pas plus tard est étrange et très fatiguant si la fête doit continuer avec un apéro et dîner. Faites un effort Église protestante!!🤔

A historical church that is quite different from the other Zurich churches, in that when we visited, the door was left opened with no one manning it. We were able to explore the interior on our own and there was also no entry fees. The church is also quieter than the others and felt more peaceful.

Really beautiful church right in the centre of the city, though in a quiet location ✨️

(Translated by Google) Since it was a tour, I didn't go sightseeing in Zurich. When you see the Limmat river when you cross the pedestrian-only Mulestech Bridge, From the right, there were St. Peter's Church, Fraumünster (Basilica of Our Lady) and Grossmünster (Cathedral), which made a nice view. St. Peter's Church is the closest, I couldn't see the big clock in the tower because it was too far away. (Original) ツアーなのでチューリッヒの観光はなしでした。 歩行者専用のミューレステク橋を渡る時にリマト川を見ると、 右から聖ペーター教会、フラウミュンスター (聖母聖堂)、グロスミュンスター (大聖堂)がありいい景観をなしていました。 聖ペーター教会が最も近いのですが、 遠くすぎて塔の大きな時計は見えませんでした。

(Translated by Google) love the place (Original) liebe den Ort

Backpacker here. I took a long walk coming from the east, through the cute little towns and across the bridge. On the other side there were cute little shops and a meringue shop. I went over to St. Peters church but it was closed. Overall the walk wasn't bad. Switzerland has unpredictable weather (in my travels of the country) rains every day. Keep dry.

(Translated by Google) Personally, I don’t feel much to see, it is better to take a few more steps and sit by the river (Original) 个人感觉没啥看的，不如多走几步河边坐坐

(Translated by Google) The largest clock in Europe at this church. Isama is beautiful (Original) Самые большие часы в европе наэтой церкви . Исама красива

Too monotonous church, more like a place for daily use.

My wife and I were on a stroll through the Lindenhof area and stumbled into this church. We loved listening to them practice music and enjoyed sitting in the beautiful sanctuary.

Interesting clock face and architecture. Easy to walk to from the main station. The walking route map takes you to see this.

Wonderful church in city center of Zürich.

Lovely old church hidden away on a quiet square near the old centre of Zurich.

worth seeing

Amazing place to see

(Translated by Google) The oldest church in Zurich and at the same time the cutest. First of all, I mean her tower with a huge clock, which for some reason seemed to me like wide-open, surprised eyes. By the way, the clock was installed in the 16th century, and for a long time it was the largest outdoor clock in all of Europe. They are going right now. However, for Swiss watches to go inaccurately - it's some kind of perdimonocle! (Original) Самая старая церковь Цюриха и одновременно самая милая. Прежде всего, я имею в виду ее башню с огромными часами, которые почему-то показались мне похожи на широко раскрытые удивленные глаза. Кстати, часы установлены в 16 веке, и долго были самыми большими наружными часами во всей Европе. Они и сейчас идут точно. Впрочем, чтобы в Швейцарии часы шли неточно - это какой-то пердимонокль!
