Very beautiful ruin, part of the outer wall and the outer shell of the tower with two rooms are still there, albeit completely hollowed out (no upper floor or stairs)
The outdoor courtyard is also very nicely designed with various barbecue areas, benches and tables, a great destination!
Camping is strictly prohibited!

Once an important castle, probably built by a Graubünden noble family in the 13th century. In 1517, Glarus acquired the area - it thus became "common" subject land of the Swiss Confederation, and the castle no longer played any role and fell into disrepair.
