Scuol "German Schuls"
During excavations in 1963 on the church hill, the oldest remains of a settlement were uncovered and dated to 1500 BC in the Bronze Age. The excavations in 1970 revealed evidence of a presumably Carolingian church, which burned down in 1258. At the beginning of the 16th century, the Romanesque successor building had become dilapidated and the current Gothic church was completed in 1516. Around 1530, the community converted to Protestantism. From 1621, women were allowed to sit on the right in the church because they had been involved in defending the town against the attack under Alois Baldiron.
In Scuol, Eberhard von Tarasp founded the original convent of the Marienberg Abbey in the upper Vinschgau in 1089/96, where the abandoned monastery was relocated from 1146.
In 1622, the Lower Engadine became Habsburg subject land again in return for a lease. After the Graubünden turmoil, the area was bought free of remaining Austrian rights in two treaties with Austria in 1649 and 1652.

The town of 5,000 people owes its name to its San Geer church. It stands on the edge of a cliff under which the Inn flows. In Latin, cliff means scopolus. With its colorful alpine houses, the village is definitely worth a visit.

A small excursion or stop that is worthwhile. Idyllic without a museum character.
