Blarer Castle, Historic château in Aesch, Switzerland.

The stone castle stands at Hauptstrasse 23 with a Gothic revival half-round tower and several support buildings surrounding the main structure point.

The Blarer of Wartensee family, who generated wealth through linen trade, constructed this residence between 1605 and 1606 in the Basel region.

The castle evolved from a noble residence to become an integral part of the community, housing a school, hospital, and now municipal administration offices.

Visitors can access the castle's public areas and gardens during government office hours, with the vaulted cellar available for event rentals.

The castle was designed as a residential structure rather than a fortified building due to changes in weapon technology during the 17th century.
