    The statue of Jesus, a copy of the Brazilian Cristo Redentor, served as the lighthouse of the 6th Bad RagARTz and was located on the Guschakopf.

    However, after the art exhibition, the statue had to be moved. Since then it has stood in the garden of the Hotel Schloss Wartenstein and overlooks the highest vineyard in Eastern Switzerland, the well-known old Roman trade route "Porta Romana", the castle ruins of Wartenstein and the Rhine Valley and welcomes visitors on the way to Pfäfers Abbey.

    The hotel garden is freely accessible and you can marvel at this imposing statue up close. It weighs 2.4 tons and measures eleven meters including the base.

        A very unexpected sight in such a small village, some nice castle ruins & a church nearby as well...
