    The medieval complex of Fürstenburg in Burgeis was built by Bishop Konrad of Chur in the 13th century. Some alterations were made in the 16th and 17th centuries. Particularly worth seeing is the massive keep with a wall thickness of three meters, which, together with the surrounding defensive and high castle, forms the oldest part of the building.
    In 1996, the tower collapsed and was subsequently expanded by the then director Georg Flora. Today, Fürstenburg houses a vocational school for agriculture and forestry.
