Swiss Church

Historical photo of the Basilica di San Silvestro in Trieste, viewed from the adjacent little square. The simple facade with arched windows and the small bell tower stand out among the houses, while passers-by and curious onlookers animate the scene, even on the roof. The staircase on the right leads to the forecourt and emphasizes the atmosphere of the historic center. The inscription “Chiesa elvetica” at the top indicates the origin from a vintage postcard.
