Ritterhaus Bubikon, Knights Hospitaller commandry in Bubikon, Switzerland
The Ritterhaus Bubikon encompasses stone buildings with a commander's house, rectory, chapel of St. John the Baptist, and additional service structures near Zurich.
The commandery was established on January 17, 1101, following a land exchange between the Counts of Toggenburg and Rapperswil to resolve territorial disputes.
The museum within the commander's house exhibits historical artifacts, including an extensive coin collection and antique arms donated by Johann Jakob Vogel.
Visitors can explore the site from April through October, Tuesday to Friday between 1 PM and 5 PM, weekends and holidays from 10 AM to 5 PM.
The Epochen-Kräutergarten, established in 2011, spans 400 square meters and maintains a collection of medieval herbs used during the commandery's active period.
