Description

During this hike, shortened stories about Paul Luziet are presented on nine pillars. The stories come from Gugliem Gadola, who was born in 1902 in Disentis. Gugliem Gadola wrote many stories, novellas, biographies, and historical essays. He is the father of the popular and humorous character «Paul Luziet». Gugliem Gadola died in 1961 in Chur. He is commemorated in the Ligia Grischa garden in Trun.


Here you can read the various legends.
