Abbey Wine Press - Klostertorkel
17th c.; ancient village centre (Middle Ages)
The abbey wine press, together with the courtyard (today's Haus Enderlin v. Montzwick, diagonally opposite), once belonged to the Churwalden abbey. After the Reformation it was looted and the Abbey lost its assets in Maienfeld. The current owner is the association "Kultur Herrschaft". The volume of the wine press indicates that it was built in the 17th century. However, the structure's history reaches back to the Middle Ages.
