Grynau Castle
Tuggen, Switzerland, Switzerland
Grynau Castle is a preserved medieval tower in the municipality of Tuggen, canton of Schwyz, Switzerland, built by the House of Rapperswil in the early 13th century to guard the vital bridge crossing over the Linth River.
Positioned strategically near one of only four bridges spanning the river until the 20th century, it witnessed key conflicts including the 1337 battle between Zurich forces and a Habsburg-led coalition.
Today, the robust stone tower stands as a Swiss heritage site of national significance, offering visitors a glimpse into medieval defense amid scenic riverside paths.
