What you'll see
A huge white castle on the hill over the old town, reached by a steep funicular or a footpath. Inside: ramparts with views over the roofs to the Alps, the archbishops' gilded state rooms and small museums.
A brief history
Begun in 1077, it's one of the largest medieval castles in Europe to survive whole. It was never taken by force; its one siege, in the Peasants' War of 1525, failed.
