MALOJA

Torre Belvedere (Belvedere Tower)
The tower construction dates back to 1882 when Count Camille de Renesse projected a castle as his family residence. The Tower and the adjacent hotel were not finished though until a few years later, between the years 1896-1903.
After having been used for various purposes, the propriety became the headquarters of the Federal Society for the Protection of Nature in 1953. The hotel was demolished and the guard tower remains the emblem of Maloja.
In 1988, it passed under the building legislation of the local tourist board. During the summer it hosts art exhibitions. <<
