St. Peter is one of the four main churches of the old town of Zürich Switzerland besides Grossmünster Fraumünster and Predigerkirche.Located next to the Lindenhof hill site of the former Roman castle it was built on the site of a temple to Jupiter. An early church of 10 by 7 metres is archaeologically attested for the 8th or 9th century. This building was replaced by an early Romanesque church around AD 1000 in turn replaced in 1230 by a late romanesque structure parts of which survive.
