The “Chesa Rosatsch” writes history
In the idyllic old section of the village of Celerina, hiding behind its more than 300 year old walls, lays the “Chesa Rosatsch”, the small but choice vacation oasis. There is much history in the four houses which have been renovated in 1995 and 1996.
The original house, the red “Chesa Rosatsch” is more than 300 years old. The “Chesa a l’En” (beige) was built around 1633 and the purple “Chesa” is 125 years old. The “Chesa al Flüm” is new, erected in 1995.
Interesting things can be told about the “Chesa L’En”. The house, built in 1633, belonged from 1831 until 1924 to three sisters: Juditha, Annetta and Anna Hatz. These three names are preserved in the graffiti above the “Stüva”. The sisters kept their distance from the village population and were known as rather strange ladies. The graffiti on the garden side testify to rather strange doings.
The three women were afraid of mice and therefore slept in beds which had high legs. They put papers with poems and proverbs in the yet open graves of deceased people and later cleaned their grave stones. To increase the strange aura which surrounded them, they sat on the top of the roof of their house with a spinning wheel. As they had no heirs, the “house Hatz” was given to the evangelical church after their death.
The “Chesa Rosatsch” was built between 1630 and 1635 and has been the property of the family Brentel – Kunz since 1943. This family built the “Hotel Chesa Rosatsch” and had the local artist Giulio Pedretti restore the graffiti.
