Mountaineers Cemetery

TIME : 2016/2/19 0:55:16

A walk in Zermatt’s twinset of cemeteries – the Mountaineers' Cemetery in the garden of Zermatt's St Mauritius Church and the main cemetery across the road – is a sobering experience. Numerous gravestones tell of untimely deaths on Monte Rosa, the Matterhorn and Breithorn.
