3 Best Sights in Graubünden, Switzerland

The Casino St. Moritz—the highest in Switzerland, at 1,833 meters (6,014 feet)—offers roulette, poker, blackjack, and slot machines, including a Swiss Jackpot of more than 1 million SF. Dress code is smart casual.

One of the few reminders that flashy, contemporary St. Moritz was not so very long ago a simple Engadine village is the Engadiner Museum, a reproduction of the traditional sgraffitied home. In a building dating from 1906, the fully renovated museum has displays of furniture, tools, and pottery in rooms decorated in styles from different periods, as well as an exhibit explaining the Romansch language. Visitors receive an iPad that acts as an electronic guide as they make their way through the museum, or they can download the guide onto their own phones.

The somewhat forbidding stone structure that houses the Segantini Museum showcases the work of Italian artist Giovanni Segantini (1858–99). His huge triptych La Vita, La Natura, La Morte hangs in the domed upper floor. Take a seat on the bench to take in the work of this fine impressionist artist.
