Nikloaus’ birthplace<\/a> is Fl\u00fceli. The house was enlarged and rebuilt several times, finally restored in 1925 with old materials; in the basement, there are remains of the former house.<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n

Nikolaus, son of the public domain farmer Heini and his wife Hemma, who owned 12 hectares of land and were thus rich farmers, was blessed with visions as a child. As a young man, he had a strong penchant for solitude and silent prayer. At the age of 16, he saw in a vision a tall tower at the spot in Ranft where he later built his hermitage<\/a>. There are also reports of a visit from three men – similar to the visit of the three divine men to\u00a0Abraham<\/a>\u00a0– who promised him a blessed death and gave him a cross as a sign.<\/h2>\n

Nicholas became a farmer and from 1440 he took part as an officer in the war against\u00a0Zurich<\/a>, during which the\u00a0massacre of\u00a0Greifensee<\/a><\/q>\u00a0took place, the murder of the already defeated defenders. In 1446, at the age of about 29, Nicholas married the fourteen-year-old Dorothea Wyss, then built a new\u00a0house<\/a>\u00a0on the Fl\u00fceli and became the father of five boys and five girls. In 1457 he took legal action against the\u00a0increase in church taxes demanded by the priest of\u00a0Sachseln, and in 1459 he rose to the rank of councillor in <\/a>Obwalden<\/a>\u00a0and judge of his community. He was respected for his sense of justice and his wisdom; he resisted higher political tasks. In 1460 he was again involved as a soldier in the campaign against\u00a0Thurgau<\/a>; according to tradition, he prevented the burning of the\u00a0Katharinental<\/a>\u00a0monastery in Diessenhofen. Throughout all these years, however, he never lost his secret longing for the life of a hermit. When he first asked his wife for his release, she refused in horror.<\/h2>\n

At the age of 50, his search for the meaning of life intensified:\u00a0I was deeply depressed. My beloved wife and the company of my children became a burden to me<\/q>. He suffered from fits; sometimes he would lean against the wall with his eyes rolling back, his mouth open and a distorted expression on his face, and would no longer be responsive. On the advice of a priest, he devoted himself more to contemplating the suffering\u00a0of Christ<\/a>; finally, with the express consent of his wife and children, which he regarded as\u00a0a great grace from God<\/q>, he decided to go abroad. On\u00a0St. Gall’s<\/a>\u00a0Day in October 1467, Nicholas left his family – the youngest child was just one year old – and resigned from all political offices. He first made his way to a mystical brotherhood in\u00a0Basel<\/a>, but shortly before reaching his destination, he felt called back to Waldenburg<\/a> by three visions: mystical figures blocked his way, then he saw the whole city bathed in blood red and the following night a beam of light fell on him, which gave him a stomach ache.<\/h2>\n

Nicholas realized that his flight to\u00a0Basel<\/a> was not God’s will, but he did not dare to return home and first went to the\u00a0Alpe Chlisterli<\/a>\u00a0in the Melchtal, some distance from his hometown.<\/p>\n

When he was found by hunters after eight days, Nicholas finally went to the place that he had seen in a vision as his hermitage since childhood: the\u00a0Ranft Gorge<\/a>, just a few minutes from his family\u00a0home<\/a>\u00a0on the Fl\u00fceli. He spent his first winter there in a hut made of branches and leaves. The following summer, farmers from Fl\u00fceli built the cell and chapel for Nicholas as forced labor. In 1469, the\u00a0auxiliary<\/a>\u00a0bishop of Constance – after examining the respectability of Nicholas’s hermit life – consecrated these in honor of the\u00a0Mother of God<\/a>, the penitent\u00a0Mary Magdalene<\/a>, the Holy Cross, and the 10,000 knights<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In 1469, Ulrich, a priest from Memmingen<\/a>, joined\u00a0Nicholas as a student and built a wooden hermitage on the opposite side of the valley in the area of \u200b\u200bthe place now called St. Niklausen, on the site of the\u00a0chapel in M\u00f6sli<\/a>\u00a0that was built in 1448. When he too began to fast strictly and became ill as a result, Nicholas warned him to stop. Ulrich died in 1491.<\/p>\n

Nicholas led a strict life of prayer and penance; after experiencing the visions in\u00a0Waldenburg<\/a> he no longer took any food or drink, but lived exclusively on the\u00a0Eucharist<\/a> for almost 20 years of his hermit life, as was confirmed by an investigation ordered by the responsible bishop; however, he explained to an abbot:\u00a0Good Father, I never said and I am not saying that I don\u2019t eat anything<\/q>; in any case, he was so emaciated that he was unable to work. He slept on a board and used a stone as a pillow. Contemporaries described him as sociable, communicative, comfortable, cheerful, and, above all, friendly<\/q>. It is said that he resisted the temptation of the devil, who threw him into a thorn bush. When asked what he considered to be God\u2019s greatest gift to mankind, he replied:\u00a0reason<\/q>.<\/h2>\n

People came from far and wide to seek advice from\u00a0Brother Klaus<\/q>, as he now called himself. He was considered one of the greatest advisors and pastors, also for domestic and foreign politicians,\u00a0and was revered by the people as a\u00a0living saint. In 1473, Archduke Sigmund of Austria sent his linen doctor to Nicholas and gave him rich gifts. In 1481, for the <\/q>Diet<\/q>\u00a0in\u00a0Stans<\/a>, he brokered peace between the Confederates, who had become divided after their surprise victory over\u00a0Burgundy<\/a> and were now threatening to go to war among themselves, using a message delivered by the priest. In this way, he saved the Confederacy, which at that time consisted of eight cantons. The treaty that was then concluded formed the basis of the Confederacy for more than three centuries; this is why Nicholas is considered the peacemaker and\u00a0savior of Switzerland<\/q>.<\/h2>\n
\"Nicholas'\n

Heimo Amgrund, the pastor of\u00a0Stans<\/a>, reported in the\u00a0Sachsler<\/a>\u00a0church register:<\/i>
Brother Klaus had told him that in his mother’s womb before he was born, he had seen a star in the sky that shone through the whole world. Since he had lived in Ranft<\/a>, he had always seen a star in the sky that was like him, so he thought it was him. This meant that everyone in the world knew that he also shone in the world like that.
Brother Klaus had also told him that he had seen a large stone that signified the steadfastness and firmness of his being, in which he should persevere and not abandon his plan.
He had also seen the holy oil.<\/h2>\n

In 1482, Nicholas used gifts from the Swiss Confederates and the pilgrims to establish a chaplaincy for his chapel, which was then transferred to the new\u00a0chapel of St. Barrom\u00e4us<\/a>\u00a0on the Fl\u00fceli in 1619. In the church register of\u00a0Sachseln,<\/a>\u00a0Nicholas was described in 1488 as\u00a0decent, kind, pious, and sincere<\/q>.<\/h2>\n
\"Statue,\n

Nicholas died after eight days of convulsive suffering, in the presence of his wife. The next day, a messenger met her at the grave, describing a vision of Nicholas standing in radiance on the rock now occupied by the Chapel of St. Borromeo. His death sparked widespread mourning: Vienna’s St. Stephen’s Cathedral was draped in black, with a requiem mass attended by a hundred priests.<\/h2>\n

Nicholas’ austere lifestyle initially sparked curiosity and suspicion among his contemporaries, but he eventually earned their fascination and trust and was revered as a living saint, a peacemaker, and the father of the homeland.<\/h2>\n

Nicholas was one of the last great mystics of the Middle Ages. His meditations and prayers focused on the suffering of Jesus<\/a>, the\u00a0Eucharist<\/a>, and the Trinity. His meditation picture showed Christ with the crown of thorns in the middle and from this six spokes and six medallions with scenes from the biblical history of salvation. It soon became widely known as\u00a0a wheel picture.<\/q><\/h2>\n

The gravesite of Brother Klaus, located next to the parish church in Sachseln and near his hermitage chapel in the Ranft Gorge, became one of Switzerland’s most significant pilgrimage sites. To accommodate the influx of pilgrims, a lower chapel was constructed in 1501 near the original upper chapel. The same year, the canton of Obwalden commissioned the first biography of Nicholas. Initially dedicated to Theodor von Sitten, the church at Nicholas’ grave site was rebuilt and expanded in 1459. Following his beatification in 1672, another new building was constructed. A chapel dedicated to Charles Borromeo, who visited in 1570, was built in Nicholas’ hometown of Fl\u00fceli between 1614 and 1618.<\/h2>\n

Nicholas’ birthplace<\/a>\u00a0in Fl\u00fceli is considered to be the oldest house in Switzerland, with parts dating back to the 14th century and the substance dating back to 1460; it was enlarged and rebuilt several times, and finally restored in 1925 using old materials; in 1944\/45 the family\u00a0home<\/a>\u00a0he had built was also renovated; in 1947, on the occasion of his canonization, a celebration area was set up beneath the\u00a0Borromeo Chapel. In 1868, a <\/a>monastery<\/a>\u00a0for poor maids\u00a0was founded in the main town of Melchtal according to the\u00a0Benedictine<\/a> rule, whose patron was Brother Klaus. Nicholas is the only traditional saint born in Switzerland.<\/h2>\n

When Switzerland feared an attack by Nazi Germany, another miracle occurred\u00a0in\u00a0Waldenburg<\/a><\/q> on May 13, 1940: a large, brightly shining hand appeared in the sky above the town – the protective hand of the country’s patron saint, Brother Klaus; Switzerland was spared from the war.<\/h2>\n

The\u00a0Brother Klaus Church<\/a> in Zurich-Unterstrass is the first parish church in the world to be dedicated to Brother Klaus, which was only possible in 1928 with the express permission of the Pope, as canonization was still pending. In the meantime (2018) there are another 27 churches and chapels dedicated to him in Switzerland, 11 in Austria, and 39 in Germany. In the canton of Obwalden,<\/a> the Memorial Day of September 25 has been a public holiday since 1947.<\/h2>\n

\"\"\u00a0Canonization:\u00a0<\/b>In 1649,<\/span> Pope Innocent X granted permission for liturgical veneration, which was equivalent to beatification; on March 8, 1669<\/span>, Pope Clement IX confirmed this permission for liturgical veneration in the\u00a0parish church<\/a>\u00a0in Sachseln and expressly lifted earlier bans by the bishops of\u00a0Constance<\/a>. On September 26, 1671, Pope Clement X extended the permission to all Swiss cities and the areas in the diocese of Constance. After attempts by the Swiss bishops in 1869, 1929, and 1935 failed, Nicholas was finally canonized on\u00a0May 15, 1947<\/span>, on the Feast of the Ascension<\/a>, by Pope Pius XII.
