    Hi Gang,

    The attached photo is of a jigsaw puzzle.

    It looks just a bit Swiss.

    Any ideas where it is?

    Hi Rockoyster,

    If it’s Switzerland I would say Central or East Switzerland, just by looking at the architecture. But I can’t be of more help I’m afraid.

    < It looks just a bit Swiss >

    It is Austrian: St Niklaus, Obernberg am Brenner, Austria.

    I was figuring that it was Austrian, and managed to find this (attached) and then (second attached) but had no idea where in Austria. Way to go Snowman (and I thought I was a super sleuth).

    It would be fun to see some more photo quizzes.

    See attached. I don’t have to contact the photographer to ask for the location of the church !

    Arno, can you delete the first attachment ? I uploaded it by mistake and I see no way to delete it myself.

    I ran the image through the search at images.google.com. You can upload an image and it looks for a match. It came up with a vast number of churches but not the right one.

    This was about the closest visually goo.gl/images/UgtWfp. Close but definitely no cigar!

    Yeah, I read that one drags an image into the Google Images search bar. I tried that and it came up with the word “Chapel” and then gave me a slew of photos of “chapels”, none of which was remotely close to your jigsaw church/chapel.
