Filisur

Filisur combines the quiet scale of an Alpine settlement with the engineering drama of the Rhaetian Railway, reflecting its position above the meeting of the Albula and Landwasser valleys in Grisons. Just outside the village, the Landwasser Viaduct carries trains on a curved limestone structure into a tunnel in the cliffside; it is among Switzerland’s best-known railway monuments. The Albula line forms part of the UNESCO-listed Rhaetian Railway in the Albula/Bernina Landscapes, linking the area to a transalpine rail tradition. Filisur’s compact historic core retains substantial stone houses, while paths lead into wooded slopes and the surrounding mountains.
