En un regard
Le château en bref
The Neuhaus, at Neuhausweg 4 in Hölstein, stands at the northern entrance to the village. An inscription above the door states that it was entirely rebuilt in 1671 by Eusebius Merian and Elisabeth Gysin; the stonemason's mark on the portal is that of master mason Martin Keigel of Liestal. The three-storey building is covered by a double-pitched roof; its paired windows have late Gothic chamfers and Renaissance volutes, and an octagonal stair tower with a spire stands at the rear. Inside, the entrance hall has a wooden ceiling decorated with baroque vine motifs, and the upper floor contains panelled rooms with painted ceilings. The building has been protected at cantonal level since 1974.
