    The medieval complex of the Fürstenburg in Burgeis was built by Bishop Konrad of Chur in the 13th century. Some modifications were made in the 16th and 17th centuries. The mighty keep with a wall thickness of three meters is particularly worth seeing. Together with the surrounding fort and stronghold, it forms the oldest part of the building stock.
    In 1996 the tower collapsed and the director at the time, Georg Flora, then expanded it. Today, the Fürstenburg houses a technical school for agriculture and forestry.

        Impressive castle in Winschgau with the most beautiful panorama of the Alps in the background. Here you should linger a little.
