Schloss Brandis is a lofty 15th-century tower, a five-minute walk northeast of Maienfeld train station, housing one of the canton's best restaurants. Sit in the beamed, lantern-lit dining room, in the garden or in the vaulted cellar, and enjoy Maienfeld Riesling soup and meatier specialities (including excellent game in autumn).
