Burgruine Last

Burgruine Last is a medieval castle ruin in Kradolf-Schönenberg situated on elevated ground in eastern Switzerland. The stone walls command views over the municipality and the surrounding valleys.

The fortress was built during the Middle Ages as a strategic stronghold where local nobility exercised control over the surrounding region. It formed part of a network of defensive structures that shaped eastern Switzerland.

The ruins serve as a gathering place where the community comes together to maintain connection with their local heritage. It functions as a focal point where residents and visitors can experience the land's historical roots in a tangible way.

Access is via marked hiking paths that connect from the main road and lead to the site. Informational signs at the location help visitors understand the layout and features of the remains.

A local association gathers here annually to meet and carry out preservation work together at the site. This ongoing practice demonstrates how community effort keeps a historical place alive and cared for.
