I enjoyed reading your story about Giswil. I have traced my 2nd Great Grandmother to Giswil. I am coming for a visit to Switzerland before a cruise in late August, but Giswil is a little out of our way. I really would like to make a quick trip to see where she was from, as I have learned to love this little woman through studying her life. I was wondering if you could tell me how far of a walk it is from the Hotel Krone to the small chapel (St. Laurentiis) I believe. Or perhaps there is another church right by the Hotel. I can catch a bus from Luzern to the hotel. The train stops a lot further away, but I will have to take the train back.
I think it is about a mile walk. The people are very friendly and polite in Giswil and would give you a ride to the church and back to the hotel. There are two churches in Giswil.
Hope you have a wonderful vacation.
Thank you so very much, Laura
