    Gallery at the Splügen Pass / La Galleria from 1843
    Historic avalanche gallery at the Splügen Pass
    The historic avalanche gallery on the north side of the Splügen Pass was completed in 1843 and made it possible to keep it open in winter even in critical conditions. After the Second World War, the Splügen remained closed during the winter months and the gallery was bypassed with a summer road. The gallery has been restored in recent years with a restoration project so that at least hikers can use it again safely.
