Ziteil is a Roman Catholic pilgrimage site which was purportedly the location of a Marian apparition in the 1500s. The chapel is located at a height of 2,429 metres above sea level, between Piz Curvér and Piz Toissa, in the canton of Graubünden.[1][2]
It is claimed to be the highest elevation pilgrimage site in Europe.[1]
In 1933, a Catholic theatrical play was premiered in Salouf, written by Alexander Lozza and based on the legend of the Marian apparition.[3]
