In order to get an overall impression of Chur’s Old Town, it is best to walk up to the Bishop’s Court, cross this and thus reach Arosastrasse. From here the visitor can admire the profusion of roofs of the narrow terraced houses, over which protrudes the strangely crooked ridge of the Town Hall with its ridge turrets. Here and there the towers and parts of the old town walls can still be seen. On the way to the Bishop’s Court is the Rätische Museum in a baroque patrician house. In the historical rooms a great number of artistic and everyday requisites – not only from the Middle Ages – are displayed.
