Sainte-Thérèse de Lisieux Church (2)The church is surprisingly large, dominating such a small hamlet. Originally, its initiators planned to make it a place of pilgrimage and even to set up a convent. The Romanesque church has three altars and its stained glass windows were created by the Valais landscape and portrait painter Joseph André Mussler (1904-1980). The fresco in the choir, painted in 1950, is the work of Italian painter Alfredo Cini (1877-1970), who studied at the Florence Academy of Fine Arts before moving to Sierre and establishing himself as one of the best mountains painters. The Way of the Cross is by Paul Monnier (1907-1982), a famous painter from Grimentz in the Val d'Anniviers.
