The palace in Brig named after the builder Kaspar Stockalper. The famous building with its three towers with the onion tips already graced many a calendar page. It was Kaspar Stockalper who recognized the strategic importance of the Simplon Pass and built the mule track over the pass in the 17th century. With trade of different goods he gained wealth.

Stockalper Palace. He set up a trading rod across the Simplon Pass to Italy. The Stockalper Weg, which we can still enjoy today.

Beautiful palace complexes by Mr. Stockalper. The palace's own garden is open to the public and is frequently visited.
