Schloss Tarasp, Graubünden / Grisons, CH
It thrones at the top of a rocky cliff: Tarasp castle, which is for the lower Engadine valley what the Matterhorn is for Zermatt. Its property encompasses a 90,000 square metre park with several additional buildings and a 27,000 square metre lake. In 1900, Karl August Lingner, an entrepreneur from Dresden, saw the derelict castle during a stay at a health resort in Tarasp. He bought it and planned to have it completely restored. Unfortunately, he died before the restoration was completed in 1916 and he bequeathed the Grisons’ cultural landmark to the von Hessen family. In 2016 the castle was sold to the Engadine artist Not Vital.
