Böttstein Castle
Böttstein, Switzerland, Switzerland
Böttstein Castle is a medieval fortress rebuilt in late Gothic and early Baroque style between 1615 and 1617 by the von Roll brothers in Böttstein, canton of Aargau, Switzerland, on the site of a 12th-century structure originally held by the Barons of Böttstein.
First documented in 1087, the noble family occupied it until the 13th century, after which ownership shifted through various lines before the von Rolls acquired the village and estate in 1606, transforming the defensive castle into a comfortable mansion with an ornate chapel featuring Italian Baroque stucco work by northern Italian masters.
Passing to the Schmid family of Bellikon in 1674, who managed it until 1893, the castle now functions as a hotel and event venue listed as a Swiss heritage site of national significance, surrounded by vineyards and gardens amid the Fricktal landscape.
