Brandis Castle
Lützelflüh, Switzerland
Brandis Castle is the ruin of a 13th-century hill fort in the Swiss municipality of Lützelflüh, Canton of Bern, built around 1230 as the headquarters of the Freiherr of Brandis family, with Konrad as the first known member from 1239 to 1257.
It replaced earlier local strongholds, served as a noble residence and later Bernese bailiwick until a devastating fire on April 14, 1798, destroyed it during the French invasion, marking the end of its administrative role.
The site overlooks the Emme Valley, developed into a village hub amid industrial growth in the late 19th century, and remains a historic landmark tied to the area's Roman-era roots and medieval heritage.
