Ardez

view map

Ardez’s most impressive landmark is the ruin of the Castle Steinsberg, from where you get an impressive view over the whole village. The Castle dates back to 1209 and changed hands many times over the years. In 1499, the Castle was burned down during the war against Austria. The ruins were never rebuilt, but the tower is open for guided tourist tours today.

Wow, talk about showing the rugged country! This shot does. It shows how the mountains tower over the valleys.
