Due to very high insulation values, our holiday apartments require very little energy. We reduce power consumption by using main switches in every apartment.
The photovoltaic system on our roofs not only contributes to reducing our electricity consumption.
In addition to plenty of wood as a natural building material, mineral lime plaster ensures a healthy, pleasant indoor climate.
The Turrabuel is actually called “tower hill”, “Turra” stands for tower and “Büel” stands for “hill.” It was created from a rock slide from the Rothorn and was then brought into its present form by a glacier. Behind the Turrabuel are the so-called “Gruoben”, a strikingly hilly landscape that highlights the debris from the landslide. The material is reddish because it contains iron.
The tower on the hill dates back to the Middle Ages. It was built from the remains of a small dilapidated chapel “at the upper gate”, which stood near today's Hotel Alpina and had a tower on its side. From the outset, it was built as a church tower, which was intended to spread the people of bells across the entire valley at an elevated position. The route from Chur via Parpan to Tiefencastel, through the Oberhalbstein and then over the Septimer Pass to Bergell and to Italy was of great importance even in Roman times.
