On the border between Obersaxen and the municipality of Breil/Brigels, on a striking rocky plateau above Tavanasa, there are mysterious remains of walls.

Description

They suggest a former castle, of which, however, there are no documentary references. The carefully executed walls of 1.7 m thickness suggest a very early origin (11th/12th century). However, the complex seems to have been abandoned before the 13th century. It is not excluded that Heidenberg could have been a temporary refuge.
