Ragatz (1709; pop. 1996), prettily situated on the impetuousTamina; which falls into the Rhine lower down, is a famouswatering-place and one of the most frequented places in Switzerland. (50,000 visitors annually, passing travellers included). The villagefirst owed its importance to the construction of thePfafers road (seebelow) and of the conduit, 2/2 M. long, conveying the mineralwater thence to Hof Ragatz in 1838-40, and the handsome buildingsrecently erected give it almost the appearance of a town. The chief rallying-points are the Quellenhof and the Hof Ragatz(formerly a mansion of the Abbots of Pfafers). In the Kurgarten,at the back of the Quellenhof, a band plays in the morning, noon,and evening. The open colonnade on the K. side affords a pleasingsurvey of the Rhine Valley. The new Baths and Trinkhalle are onthe side. Beyond them are pleasure-grounds with a whey-cure establishment, etc. In the Cemetery, by the R. wall, is the monument of the philo- BAD PFAFERS. 88.
