Sils im Engadin has served as a mountain resort in the Upper Engadin since the late 19th century. The municipality brings together Sils Maria and Sils Baselgia on the shore of Lake Sils, the largest lake in the Engadin, with Lake Silvaplana lying to the northeast. The broad high valley sits amid the Alps, while the quieter Fex Valley extends south from Sils Maria through meadows and old farm buildings. Philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche spent seven summers here between 1881 and 1888; his former summer residence is now the Nietzsche House, a museum and cultural venue.
