Thusis Essentials

Thusis serves as the northern gateway to the Viamala Gorge and a primary junction for the UNESCO-listed Albula railway line. This selection features prominent fortifications including the medieval ruins of Hohenrätien and Obertagstein, which historically guarded the strategic Alpine passes. The town’s architectural legacy is further represented by its heritage-protected late Gothic church and the 19th-century manor house, Schloss Untertagstein, all situated within the dramatic landscape of the Domleschg valley.
