Latsch Castle in the village center was first mentioned in 1297 and was likely built by the Tyrolean Count Meinhard II. Until 1313, the castle served as a court, after which it changed hands through inheritance. The medieval building was surrounded by a moat that encircled the five-story living space. Today, the castle is privately owned.
