Schiefer Turm und Kirchenruine, St. Moritz, Medieval tower in St. Moritz, Switzerland

The stone tower rises 33 meters above St. Moritz, featuring a distinctive tilt of 5.5 degrees from its vertical axis.

Originally constructed in 1570 as part of St. Mauritius Church, the tower remained standing when the church was demolished in 1893.

The structure represents Swiss architectural preservation, classified as a B-grade cultural property of regional importance in the canton of Grisons.

The tower stands at Via Brattas and remains accessible throughout the year, with nearby public transportation and parking facilities.

Regular measurements and structural monitoring by ETH Zurich since 1976 ensure the stability of this leaning tower.
