The monastery in Müstair has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1983. The Plant Tower was already in use in the 10th century. Overall, the monastery is a witness to the time around 800 AD. Even today, the buildings are still used as a Benedictine monastery, but can be visited by visitors. In addition to a monastery museum, there is also the option of staying overnight there: muestair.ch/klostergemeinschaft.
