Einsiedeln Monastery, Switzerland

The monastery at Einsiedeln attracts visitors from far away places - visitors who make a pilgrimage to visit the Black Madonna positioned in a place of honour just inside the monastery church. (She is "black" as in of African appearance.)  Clearly, this image is not of the Black Madonna herself, but of a golden statue just outside the edifice.
