Castell Castle, Stately home in Tägerwilen, Switzerland.

The stone castle stands on Thurgau Seerücken ridge, offering views over Lake Constance, Reichenau Island, and the surrounding countryside of eastern Switzerland.

Following renovations in 1725, the castle underwent substantial changes between 1878 and 1894 when architect Emil Otto Tafel transformed it into a Neo-Renaissance residence.

Carl von Häberlin painted frescoes inside the castle between 1892 and 1894, illustrating different episodes from the property's long-standing history.

The castle maintains its private status as part of a 160-hectare estate focused on agriculture and forestry, with limited public access to specific outdoor areas.

The interior features a replica of Granada's Alhambra Moorish hall, adding an unexpected Mediterranean architectural element to this Swiss mansion.
