The Höhen Rätien Castle is a hilltop and church castle high on the rock at an altitude of 946 metres above the entrance to the Viamala Gorge. It is located in Sils im Domelschg Hinterrhein Graubünden. It is one of the oldest cultural and settlement sites in Switzerland.

Rietberg Castle stands above Pratval in Doleschg Graubünden. It was built in 1225 as a hilltop castle at an altitude of 723 metres.

Sins Castle in Paspels Domleschg Graubünden was rebuilt between 1646 and 1725 by Johann Viktor Travers von Ortenstein as a hilltop castle at a height of 660 metres above the previous building.

Rietberg Castle, Rietberg Rietberg was the seat of the Lords of Rietberg, who are mentioned in a document dated July 29, 1286 as vassals of the Lords of Sax-Misox and are attested several times in the 13th and 14th centuries. In the course of the 14th century they are mentioned as ministerials of the Bishop of Chur. They owned property in Domleschg, Schams and Chur. In the marriage contract with his wife Berta von Rhäzüns in 1320, Johann von Rietberg stipulated that Berta should own the castle until her death. In 1343, however, he transferred other property to his wife and in 1348 handed it over to the Lords of Landenberg, who were related to him, along with his fiefdom. Johann von Rietberg died on September 5, 1349. Hermann von Landenberg was unable to enforce his inheritance claims and renounced them in favor of the Bishopric of Chur in 1352. In January 1354, the bishop issued several documents at the castle. The Lords of Rhäzüns and Lumerins, however, made further claims; the final payment was not made until 1388, after decades of disputes. The bishop appointed burgraves as administrators; Eglolf von Juvalt is mentioned in 1384. In the following period, a long series of mortgages, with the mortgage amount constantly increasing, ultimately cost the bishop the property. After several changes of ownership, the castle came into the hands of Anton von Travers in 1530, and through his heirs in 1554 to Herkules von Salis (1503–1578). In 1617, the property was divided: one half remained with the Salis, the other went to Pompejus Planta, the leader of the Catholics, who was related to the Salis by marriage. In the turmoil in the Grisons, Planta was murdered on February 25, 1621 by Jörg Jenatsch and his like-minded friends at Rietberg Castle. The crime was later made into a literary work by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer in the novella Jürg Jenatsch. In 1664, Rietberg was sold to Colonel Christoph von Rosenroll from Thusis for 9,000 guilders, and in 1670 to the von Buol family. In 1758, the Buol-Schauenstein family bought Planta's share, thus ending the previous division. Other owners in 1798 were the Prince-Bishop of Chur, Karl Rudolf, who wanted to set up a seminary there. The invasion of French troops in the Three Leagues prevented the plan. Rietberg was owned by Countess Emilie von Travers in 1802, the Cadonau from Waltensburg in 1803, then Colonel von Bergamin from Obervaz and again by Countess von Travers in 1822. In the same year, Pastor Christian Casparis acquired the castle. In 1917, it passed to the Rudolf Planta-Casparis family through marriage.

Sins Castle in Paspels A castle with a changing face: Sins Castle in Paspels, which is just over 300 years old. Paspels Castle was probably built by Jahn Victor von Travers-Ortenstein around 1695. Parts of the main wing probably date from this time, although they can no longer be identified. Around 1730, the builder's son of the same name seems to have carried out extensive reconstruction. This reconstruction is probably the basis for the overall layout of the current complex, especially the staircase. It is considered the presumed birthplace of Pompejus Planta, who became known as an opponent of Jürg Jenatsch. Further modifications were carried out by Lieutenant General Victor von Travers, who also had the chapel built on April 25, 1760 in honor of the names of Jesus, Mary and Joseph. The last major renovation took place in 1892/93 under Colonel Freidrich von Tscharner (later at Ortenstein) with a redesign of the exterior. The architect was Nicolaus Hartmann sen., St. Moritz. In 1911, ownership was transferred to Minister F. von Salis-Soglio. Sins Castle was run as a hotel until 2012.
