圣本笃教堂是坐落于瑞士东南部一座美丽的小村庄，由普利兹克奖得主彼得·卒姆托设计完成。教堂整体平面造型犹如一个水滴，建筑外立面采用木瓦一层一层铺设而成。在阳光和雨水的作用下，木质瓦片的颜色随着时间不断变化，在这里人们能感知时间变化留给建筑的痕迹。

St. Benedict, located in a beautiful village in southeastern Switzerland, was built by Peter Zumthor, the winner of the 2009 Pritzker Prize. The overall shape of the chapel is like a water drop, and the facade of the building is paved with layers of shingles. The color of wooden tiles changes with time under the influence of sunlight and rain, where people can perceive the traces of time.

这座教堂是本次瑞士游学的最后一站，作为朝圣之旅收尾再合适不过。在这里能感受到这座小教堂折射出的卒姆托设计哲学，能感受到他对场所的那种初期的许诺、对材质的精心打造以及对建筑实体的张力呈现。

This chapel is the last stop of this study tour in Switzerland and is perfect as an end of the pilgrimage. Here you can feel the philosophy of Zumthor from the design of the chapel. You can feel his oath of love and accuracy for architecture.

冬日造访圣本笃教堂，在冰雪映衬和阳光的照射下，这座教堂给人一种安静温暖之感。

The visit to St. Benedict’s Chapel in the winter makes you peaceful and warm under the sun and the snow.
