📍 Gutenberg Castle, Balzers, Liechtenstein

About this Stone

Standing tall atop a hill in this village, the castle offers stunning views of the surrounding valley and is a prime example of medieval architecture in the region. Its origins date back to the early 12th century, when the Freiherr von Frauenberg family initially constructed it—a noble lineage that played a significant role in the area. Over the centuries, it has been well-preserved, and visitors can explore the inside garden. For those interested in a full tour, contacting the family ahead of time is advisable. The spot is particularly captivating, offering some of the best vantage points across the landscape.
