Neu-Aspermont Castle, Medieval castle ruin in Jenins, Switzerland

The square tower of Neu-Aspermont Castle rises six stories high above a rocky spur, featuring distinct keyhole windows and remaining wall sections.

The Lords of Aspermont constructed this fortification in 1235, which later sustained damage during the War of the Swabian League in 1499.

This Class A Swiss cultural property displays architectural elements from different periods, including medieval defensive structures and 16th-century residential additions.

The castle grounds remain open to visitors throughout the year, with the ruins accessible via hiking trails through the Canton of Grisons.

The castle's dry moat, carved directly into the mountain, created an additional defensive barrier by separating the structure from the surrounding mountainside.
