Schloss Rapperswil : ウィキペディア英語版 | Rapperswil Castle
Rapperswil Castle (Swiss German: ''Schloss Rapperswil'') is a castle, built in the early 13th century AD by the House of Rapperswil in the former independent city of Rapperswil. It is located on the eastern ''Zürichsee'' respectively western ''Obersee'' lakeshore in Rapperswil, a locality of the municipality Rapperswil-Jona in the canton of St. Gallen in Switzerland. Since 1870, the castle has been home to the Polish National Museum established by Polish émigrés, including the castle's lessee and restorer, Count Wladyslaw Broel-Plater. ''Schloss Rapperswil'' and the museum are listed in the Swiss inventory of cultural property of national and regional significance as ''Class A'' objects of national importance.
== Geography == The medieval ''Altstadt'' of the city of Rapperswil is dominated by the castle perched atop a longish rocky hill on the peninsula called ''Lindenhof hill'' on its western side respectively ''Herrenberg'' on its eastern side where the castle was built. It is surrounded on three sides by the ''Lake Zürich'' and by those upper section on the northwestern ''Seedamm'' area. Thus, the castle was well protected, dominating the old town of Rapperswil, and controlling the water way between ''Walensee'' and Lake Zürich on its most narrow part, as well as the medieval Gotthard Pass route between Lombardy and Zürich, and the ''Jakobsweg'' (Way of St. James) to the Einsiedeln Abbey. The castle is situated next to ''Stadtpfarrkirche Rapperswil'' and the present cemetery chapel, and (to the east) neighboured by former small castle, as of today the ''Stadtmuseum Rapperswil''.
