Zizers/GR (CH)
»You wish? – Stately Living«
Have you ever dreamed of living in a real castle?
In the baroque castle of Zizers and its auxiliary buildings, which can be seen from afar between sunny vineyards, 26 unique condominiums will be developed by the end of 2023 in close coordination with the authorities responsible for the preservation of historical monuments. Also, as many as 40 modern flats with underground parking will be built on the neighbouring meadow. You can choose your own personal residence from this diverse range. Zita, the last Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary, also chose Zizers Castle to spend the last years of her seventy-year exile here from 1962 to 1989.
While the Unterland lies under a grey blanket of high fog, top wines ripen in the sun of the »Bündner Herrschaft«. In the castle, each flat has its own compartment in the historic wine cellar. In the nearby wine-growing village of Maienfeld, Johanna Spyri set the story of Heidi and Peter in 1880, thus establishing a Swiss myth.

hearing from you
In the tranquil rural community of Zizers, everything you need for your daily needs is within walking distance. The bustling cantonal capital of Chur is only a ten-minute drive away and offers numerous shopping opportunities, bars and restaurants.
From the plains (550 m above sea level on the Rhine) to the high mountains (Pizol 2844 m above sea level), the area, richly endowed by nature, offers almost unlimited leisure opportunities, if you are not taking a walk in the castle park. The nearby spa and health resort of Bad Ragaz offers wellness facilities, fine dining and one of the most beautiful golf courses in Switzerland in the sophisticated ambience of the Belle Epoque. In winter, there are small and large ski areas with countless kilometres of slopes to choose from.
The prestigious condominium »Erzherzog« extends beneath the vaulted ceilings of the ground floor of Zizers Castle, which are up to four metres high. The centrepiece is the large eat-in kitchen, providing enough space for festive banquets with a real knights' hall feeling.
A large living room adjoins on each side - one with a cosy seating area, the other as a library, media or music room. A lounge and a master bedroom follow. Other charming rooms can serve as guest rooms, children's rooms and study rooms.
As the only residence in the main wing, »Erzherzog« has an enclosed garden with an idyllic terrace, wide lawns and planting areas - at over 650 square metres even larger than the actual flat. So social gatherings can move outside under the shady pergola and into the corner pavilions.
Zizers Castle combines a dreamlike location with convenient access to the Rhine Valley. At this inspiring and historic location, one can perfectly realise one's own wishes in a stately setting - past and present enter into a fruitful union.
