At the southern end of Seelisberg, amidst a meadow stands this picturesque little castle on the "Weg der Schweiz" (Swiss Path - the old mule track between Lucerne, Seelisberg and Altdorf) 

Schloss Beroldingen was built ~ 1500 and is the ancestral seat of the Beroldinger family, which for decades played a leading role in the valley of Uri and beyond. The castle is not a fortress but rather a lovely country Manor offering glorious views of Lake Uri and the Reuss Valley. 

Today it's the colourful cats and flowers that are ruling this little castle-chapel.. thanks to an exhibition of a local artist.. I pause for a few quiet moments in the tiny remarkable chapel (Built in 1545, dedicated to St. Laurence) before heading back home..
