In the old hostel Chasa Chalavaina the Grisons captains held war council before the Battle of the Calven.
The Swiss Heritage Society nominates it in its guide as one of the most extraordinary hotels in Switzerland.
Description
When the soil under the stables was removed in the course of the conversion of the economy building into a hotel wing, the architect discovered remains of foundations. They turned out to be the foundation walls of a house that must have been built in Carolingian times, i.e. around the same time as the nearby monastery of St. John. This means that people have lived on the site of today's Hotel Chasa Chalavaina for 1200 years. A remarkable piece of history.
The Battle of the Calven gave the Chasa Chalavaina its name. The Romansh words mean Calven-Haus in German. Two crossed swords in the inn shield are a reminder of the battle.
