Auf der Egg

Auf der Egg goes from Eggstrasse to a formal dead-end that still has narrow paths downhill, reaching Kilchbergstrasse. It is named after the old location name meaning "auf der Ecke" (on the corner) to describe the small hill on which the current church stands.

Kirche Auf der Egg, also known as Neue Kirche Wollishofen.

That one made me giggle quite a lot, especially in front of a church. It's a statue of Ulrich Zwingli with VR glasses and piles of books, and it was work from students from the Freie Evangelische Schule.

Again some Otto Bänninger work, this time in form of a mural depicting feeding the multitude.
