Ardez Village

Ardez History
Ardez is one of the oldest parishes in the Lower Engadine and was first mentioned in 831 in a Carolingian register of property. The landowners in the 12th and 13th centuries included the Bishop of Chur, the Marienberg Monastery, the Müstair Monastery and, above all, the Lords of Matsch. At this time, the ecclesiastical territory of the Ardez parish included the area between the Inn Gorge below Zernez and the Val Tasna with the villages of Susch, Lavin, Giarsun, Guarda, Bos-cha, Sur En and Ardez, with Galtür in Paznaun also being part of it as a summer pasture area for the municipality of Ardez.
In 1325, Lavin and Susch separated from the mother church and have formed two independent parishes since 1422. In 1494, Guarda also separated from Ardez.
For many years now, there has been cooperation between the two Ardez parishes, for example on the ecumenical soup day or at Christmas. The Reformed parish looks back on a long tradition of inter-parish cooperation. For over 120 years, it has maintained a joint parish with Ftan and offers many events for both parishes. Since 2009, there has also been cooperation with Guarda and since 2013 with Lavin.
In 2016, the merger between Ardez, Ftan and Guarda took place and today's Reformed parish Ardez-Ftan-Guarda was formed.
