Der Mauerbau wurde von Kaspar Jodok von Stockalper (1609-1691) im 17. Jahrhundert als Sust und Verwaltungsgebäude errichtet. Im Jahr 2000 wurde der Turm durch ein Unwetter zerstört, jedoch daraufhin renoviert. Heute enthält er eine Ausstellung zum Goldbergwerk Gondo und beinhaltet zudem ein Hotel und ein Restaurant.
