The night of the summer solstice in 1984 was dramatic and ominous. Flames shot into the sky above Angenstein Castle, sparks flew through the thick clouds of smoke, and the old castle chapel crackled in the heat. Two precious bells, which had rung out across the valley for centuries, suddenly fell silent. When the smoke cleared, they had vanished. The residents were baffled. No one knew whether thieves had taken advantage of the confusion or whether an ancient curse had completed the work of destruction.

The medieval Angenstein Castle belongs to the Canton of Basel-Stadt and is not open to the public. However, the castle can be viewed quite well from the outside, and rooms can be rented for events. The name means 'narrow stone' and comes from the narrow passageway on the site. Throughout its history, it has been burned down, destroyed, and rebuilt many times. The last fire occurred in 1984. The castle also houses rental apartments, and below it lies the Angenstein fortification – a military historical monument of national importance. Bunkers from the Second World War are visible; the painted facades were only added in the 1960s. The Muggenberg bunker complex is visible opposite.

Schloss Binningen is a former moated castle from the 13th century, located on the southern edge of Binningen near Basel. The castle was destroyed several times by earthquakes, fire and war, and largely acquired its present form in the 17th and 18th centuries. In 1772, the moat was filled in and the building was adapted into a representative country house. Since 1960, it has been owned by the municipality and today houses a restaurant and hotel. The inner courtyard and the surrounding park make it an attractive stop on a tour of the region.

This well-preserved moated castle, one of the few remaining moated castles in Switzerland, dates back to the 13th century and was converted into an elegant Baroque country house in the 18th century with Rococo details, including stucco work in the Steinsaal. The castle is set in park-like surroundings, is completely surrounded by a moat and has a square plan with corner towers.
