These are the ruins of an ancient castle (probably dating back to before the year one thousand ...) which served to control the transits between the Val Venosta and the Engadine. Controlled by the vassals of the Princes / Bishops of Chur, and later by those of the Habsburgs. At his feet took place one of the bloodiest fights in the region, the Battle of the Calva, where, in 1499, the Swiss (clearly fewer in number), defeated the Habsburgs. The castle is more than 1500 meters high and can be reached from the village of Tubre with an uphill path (the difference in height is about 300m ...). Very scenic.

We see that maintenance operations have been carried out but otherwise it seems rather abandoned to itself. Once there must have been a sign telling the story but now there is no more .. Too bad.

Great spot and well intact. Would be nice with some historical reading to know more about the castle.
