Führung im Festungsmuseum Crestawald

60 years of top secret - today an impressive witness to Swiss military history: The Crestawald Fortress Museum provides insights into the world of the 2nd World War of the Cold War. A small village underground.

In September 1939, the construction of the fortress in Crestawald began. In 1940, the huge artillery guns were ready to fire. The aim of this bulwark was to close the north-south transit axis through Graubünden. For a long time, the bunkers carved into the rock were subject to the strictest secrecy. With the restructuring of the Swiss Army and its adaptation to new forms of threat, there was no longer any use for the artillery fortifications near the country's borders. In 1995, the plant was abandoned and in 2000 the secrecy was lifted.
