Rhäzüns Castle, Medieval castle in Rhäzüns, Switzerland.

The fortified castle stands on a steep promontory 65 meters high, offering control over the Hinter Rhine and passage into Domleschg valley.

First documented in 1288, the castle served as residence for the house of Rhäzüns until 1459, when the last baron Georges de Rhäzüns died.

The castle displays architectural elements from different periods, with main features dating to the 16th and 17th centuries, representing regional building traditions.

Located at Via Casti 11 in Rhäzüns, the castle belongs to Ems-Chemie AG and remains closed to public visits due to private ownership.

The structure forms part of a sequence of defensive castles along the Hinter Rhine, maintaining many original medieval walls and foundations.
