🏰Schloss Tarasp.

Tarasp Castle in Switzerland was built in the 11th century or even earlier and initially was just a ring wall protecting a chapel and a bell tower that also served as a watch tower. A large palace was built some 200 years later.

The castle had long been the only Austrian castle in Switzerland, actually until the early 19th century when it was seized and taken to the Helvetic Republic and later on to the Canton of Graubünden – this is when its decline began.

Actually some 200 years prior to this the castle survived two major blazes – the first one when local Protestants set it on fire and the second one when it was struck by a bolt of lightning.

Restoration works were completed early in the 20th century by a private owner who died suddenly and failed to reside in the castles.

His heir turned into a museum. In 2016 world famous multitalented multidisciplinary artist Not Vital bought it for some 7.9mn Swiss francs.
