St. Andrew's Castle in Cham, Canton of Zug, is a privately owned Swiss heritage site of national significance comprising a castle complex, chapel, and extensive grounds spanning 67,000 square metres. The hilltop location has been occupied since at least 400 AD, when Roman artifacts were deposited there, and the adjacent chapel site served religious purposes from the Roman era onward, with documented Christian services conducted by an eighth-century bishop. Though the castle remains in private hands, its parkland opens to the public twice annually.
