Kröllturm


The Kröll Tower, located above Gargazon / Gargazzone, in 1237 owned by Bertold Chrello from the family of the Lords Trautson, is now only a ruin, partly restored in 1984.








This ruin, easily reachable in 20 minutes on beautiful trails, can be visited any time.
The Kröll tower is also illustrated on the emblem of Gargazon / Gargazzone.
