Barfüsserkloster

The Barfüsserkloster in the old town of Zürich is a former Franciscan friary. It was first attested in the 1240s and was dissolved during the Reformation, in 1524. The friary was situated in the southeastern corner of the medieval city, between the Neumarkt and the Linden gates (today at Hirschengraben 13/15).

After the Reformation, the buildings were used as a grain depot, and during the early 19th century, as a casino. During the 19th century, most of the original structure was lost to significant construction work. The buildings since the 1870s have housed the cantonal court of law (Obergericht), besides the communal wine cellars and a theater. After a fire in 1890, part of the structure was removed, and is now a parking lot. The cantonal court remains the only occupant of the estate.

gollark: On the plus side the PinePhone at least will let you swap the battery and probably screen, the Librem 5 has its cellular modem and WiFi card on separate, er, M.2 cards, and the PinePhone will apparently have some I2C pogo pins to allow, say, keyboard cases.
gollark: Blackberry stuff is far too "secure" for custom ROM support, unfortunately.
gollark: Keyboard: Blackberry keyONE or however you spell that.Sane screen, two cameras, µSD slot and headphone jack: my old Wileyfox SwiftUser-replaceable components: the Fairphone maybe?GNU/Linux: PinePhone, Librem 5, that's basically it as far as I know.
gollark: The annoying thing is that many phones do *some* of this, but none do *most*.
