Kirchenruine San Gaudenzio, Gothic church ruins in Casaccia, Switzerland

The San Gaudenzio church ruins stand northeast of Casaccia village along the Maloja Pass road, featuring high stone walls and a polygonal choir section.

Built in 1514 and consecrated in 1518, the church replaced an earlier structure first mentioned in 831 as a possession of Pfäfers monastery.

The church contains numerous red chalk drawings and inscriptions left by pilgrims during the 16th and 17th centuries on its remaining walls.

The ruins belong to the Bregaglia municipality and underwent preservation work in 1925, with additional restoration efforts beginning in 2009.

With an interior length of 26 meters, San Gaudenzio ranks among the largest Late Gothic structures in the Canton of Graubünden.
