- Stadel
Do you know why these small barns in Valais, called “Stadel”, were built on posts?
With the help of those posts and the plates of slate, called “Mäuseplatte”, they tried to stop rats an mice from entering the barns and eating the grain, which was stored in them.
- Brandenbourg Castle
Did you know that an old canon was found during excavations in the ruin of Brandenbourg castle?
As the castle was only abandonned in the 18th century, it is surprising that this canon was left undetected until the excavations in 1998.
- D’Schlass um Bockfiels
Did you ever wonder what the old castle on the Bock promontory looked like?🏰
Today I found a hypothetical reconstruction of the old castle, but be aware the author might have exagerated a little bit!😉
The reconstruction are from the book “Schlossburg Lützelburg” by K. Arendt (1895)
