Hegi Castle
Over centuries the former moated mansion was the tranquil residence of affluent families until it came into the possession of the City of Winterthur; now it accommodates a youth hostel. If you wish to visit the castle nowadays, you can do so as part of a visit to the museum.
A residential tower, built around 1200, and the Ritterhaus added on at a later date as well as a farm building all belong to the well-preserved castle complex. The interior takes visitors back to the Late Middle Ages: the furniture, stoves, ceramic objects, glass paintings and weaponry tell stories of the period between the 15th and 18th century.
