The vineyard
Rapperswil's Schlossberg is the natural continuation of the rocky outcrop of the Leutschen and Ufnau mountains. The sunny south-facing slope was first mentioned in 981: "Berchtold von Breitenveld donated the Endingen vineyard, located southwest at the very tip of the promontory, to the Einsiedeln monastery." Nestled within old walls between the Capuchin monastery and the castle, the vineyard, which originated from a community of inheritance, became the property of the city of Rapperswil in 1955. Since 1969, the Kümin company has been responsible for the vineyard's care. The steep south-facing slope, the nutrient-rich molasse soil, and the mild maritime climate allow grapes with high Oechsle degrees to ripen here.
