The former Commandery Hohenrain of the Order of the Hospital of St. John in Jerusalem, one of the oldest branches of the Johanniter in what is now Switzerland. Partial buildings from the late 12th and 13th centuries of the Commandery (Kommende), first mentioned in 1182/83, and thus the structure of a medieval order castle, have largely been preserved. The command is currently owned by the canton of Lucerne and is classified as a cultural asset of national importance according to the Swiss inventory for the protection of cultural assets.
