33. Schnitzturm, Stansstad (NW)

The Schnitzturm in Stansstad, built on a promontory emerging from the sea, was one of the main defences against northern attacks. Although standing on territory belonging to the canton of Nidwalden, this famous building was two-thirds owned by the canton of Obwalden, which donated its partze to the canton of Nidwalden in 1997.
