More information about the speaker: Andri Kober
Andri Kober, born in 1964, grew up in Oberengadin as the son of a pastor. After his Matura, he studied theology at the University of Bern and spent a year of study in Rome. He then worked for around 30 years as a Reformed pastor in the Canton of Bern. On 1 July 2023, Andri
Kober took up his pastorate in the Reformed parish of Murten. His work is characterised by
an open yet firmly Christian attitude of faith and by the desire to accompany people
in different life situations and to give them guidance
More information on the topic: Until 1713 it was even closer, as the actual parish church of Muntelier, much loved by the people, "St. Maurytz bey Muntelier" stood by the present-day old cemetery.
On Bern’s orders, through its Murten Schultheiss Abraham von Graffenried, the "neuwe dt. Kirche" was built from 1710-1713 at its current site as an impressive hall church, so that the little town could finally call an appropriate meeting place for the population its own. The Bernese were not prepared to pay for the pending renovations to both the church of St. Mauritius and St. Katherinen Chapel (today French Church).
