Hohen Rätien Castle

The large rocky plateau high above the Hinterrhein is one of the oldest settlement sites in Switzerland still in use today - an exceptional cultural asset in Graubünden with a history stretching back over 4000 years. Hohen Rätien was located in the middle of the flow of traffic and goods crossing the Alps via the Splügen Pass. Here you will find traces of settlements from the Bronze and Iron Ages (2500 - 800 BC), the remains of a Roman station, sacred buildings from late antiquity with a baptistery and baptismal font from the 4th/5th century and the church of St. Johann & Viktor, once the center of the large parish for the Heinzenberg/Domleschg region.
