Schloss Oberberg, Heritage château in Gossau, Switzerland.
The medieval defense tower of Schloss Oberberg displays emblems of St. Gallen Abbey, the Counts of Toggenburg, and Abbot Diethelm Blarer von Wartensee.
Built in 1260 as a fortress to protect the princely territory against the Bishop of Konstanz, the castle was burned in 1406 during the Appenzell Wars.
The castle served as the residence and courthouse for the bailiffs of the Prince-Abbot until 1789, marking its role in regional administration.
The castle restaurant opens Wednesday through Sunday, offering seasonal menus and hosting weddings, seminars, and special events throughout the year.
After changing functions as a cheese factory, embroidery workshop, and lithography studio, the castle underwent restoration in 1955 following a fire.
