This webcam, in brief
How the camera works and what to expect from the images.
What can I see on the Celerina webcam?
The webcam looks over Celerina from the roof of the Cresta Palace hotel, at about 1,740 m. You can see the village rooftops, the bell tower of the Bel Taimpel church and the Inn plain running down towards Samedan, with the mountains of the Upper Engadin in the background. Use it to check the weather and snow before you set off.
Is the image live? How often does it update?
When the camera is running, the image updates automatically every few minutes during daylight hours. The time of the latest snapshot is shown on the page, and the timelapse plays back the hours before.
Where is Celerina and how do I get there?
Celerina/Schlarigna is in the Upper Engadin, in the Swiss canton of Graubünden, at 1,714 m and a few kilometres from St. Moritz. By train you arrive on the Rhaetian Railway: Celerina station is on the Albula line, Celerina Staz station on the Bernina line. By car you come over the Maloja Pass, the Bernina Pass or the Julier Pass.
Discover Celerina
Celerina sits at 1,714 metres, where the Upper Engadin opens in three directions: towards St. Moritz, towards Samedan and towards Pontresina. That is why it gets more hours of sunshine than the neighbouring villages. In Romansh it is called Schlarigna, and since 1950 the municipality's official name has been Celerina/Schlarigna. It was the last in the Upper Engadin to adopt the Reformation, in 1577.
The village's landmark is not in the centre but on a hillock east of the houses: the church of San Gian, built in 1478 over an older Romanesque church, with a painted wooden ceiling and frescoes from the late 15th century. It has two bell towers, and the taller one has had no spire since 1682, when lightning set it on fire: it was never rebuilt. In 1631 another fire had destroyed 43 houses in the village.
Between St. Moritz and Celerina runs the Cresta Run, the natural-ice skeleton track: about 1,200 metres with a drop of 157, first laid out in the winter of 1884–85, rebuilt every year and used for the Olympic races of 1928 and 1948. For skiing, a lift has climbed from Celerina to Marguns, in the Corviglia ski area, since 1958. Halfway to St. Moritz lies Lake Staz.
