Werdenberg Castle, Medieval castle in Grabs, Switzerland.
The castle contains three floors dedicated to different periods, including exhibits about the lords, Glarus bailiffs, and the Hilty family.
Built in 1228 by the Lords of Montfort as a fortress, the castle underwent modifications in the 16th century when transformed into a residence.
The Schlossmediale festival occurs every Pentecost at the castle, presenting early music performances, modern compositions, and audio-visual art installations.
The castle operates from April through October, Tuesday to Sunday, with guided tours available in multiple languages and a bistro serving regional specialties.
The medieval town houses were constructed within the existing castle walls, contrary to the common practice of building protective walls around settlements.
