En un regard
Le château en bref
Haus Ab Yberg im Grund, in Schwyz (Grundstrasse 82), is the ancestral home of the Ab Yberg family, an old Schwyz family attested from 1281. The family acquired land at Grund through marriage following the extinction of the Bäsi line, and established its residence there. The Kunstführer durch die Schweiz describes a large palace-type manor house arranged around a courtyard, built from 1606 on the site of a timber structure, then remodelled in 1745 and 1870, with an enclosed garden, a pavilion and outbuildings. St. Sebastian's Chapel, the family's private chapel housing its crypt, dates from 1562 according to the DHS (around 1566 according to the GSK). Separated from the house by a street in 1874, it was transformed in the Baroque style in 1783 and retains rococo stucco work from around 1730 and a Louis XVI altar.
