Steinsberg Castle, Castle ruin on hilltop near Ardez, Switzerland.
The stone fortification stands on an elevated plateau, featuring a four-story keep and remaining sections of the original ring wall structure.
The castle changed ownership multiple times until 1499, when imperial troops captured and burned it during the Swabian War.
The structure includes 14th-century window seats and an adjacent Romanesque Church of St. Luzius with an unusual north-south nave orientation.
Visitors need to follow a marked path from Ardez village to reach the castle ruins, which extend across an area of 100 by 100 meters.
The castle underwent two restoration phases in 1964 and 1985, preserving its status as a Swiss heritage site of national significance.
