Chateau with former prison tower and garden pavilion, Historical chateau with prison tower in Kehrsatz, Switzerland.

The architectural structure combines a main building, a former prison tower, and a garden pavilion situated at Belpstrasse 1 in Kehrsatz.

The construction of this regional cultural property dates back to 1598, with subsequent modifications including an extension in 1720 and roof changes in 1760.

The property stands as part of the cultural heritage list of Kehrsatz and reflects the architectural developments of Swiss noble residences.

The Canton of Bern maintains ownership of this Class B cultural property, which has served as an educational institution since 1889.

The garden pavilion, added during the mid-18th century, represents architectural elements typical of Swiss manor houses from that period.
