Trimmis defensive position

Highlight • Historical Site

The Trimmis barrier (army designation barrier no. 1322) was a Swiss Army defensive position. It lies north of Trimmis across the Chur Rhine Valley. Together with the Untervaz blockade, it formed the southern front of Sargans Fortress. It is considered a military-historical monument of regional importance.

Neuenburg Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Neuburg Castle is the ruins of a hilltop castle at 600 m above sea level. M. southwest of Untervaz in the Swiss canton of Graubünden in Switzerland. It lies on the left side of the Rhine about 50 meters above the valley floor on a steep rocky outcrop.

In the Middle Ages, the main road led to the villages on the right bank of the Rhine. That is why there were no customs rights attached to the possession of the castle. Today the ruins are easily accessible on foot via a narrow road (driving ban).
