102. Bremgarten (AG)

Rising after 1230 from the Muri monastery, the small town is surrounded on three sides by the Reuss streams. Bremgarten has often been under the rule of foreign invaders and was only rarely free of such tyrannies. During its turbulent history, Bremgarten was frequently submitted by enemies coming from foreign countries and there have been few occasions in which it was actually free. The town was first mentioned in 1140.
