MEDIEVAL COUNTRY HOTEL

Just a one-hour drive from Zurich, this historical boutique hotel offers visitors a trip back in time. The three-story manor in the late gothic style was built in 1526, and two more floors with additional rooms were added in 1640 together with two banquet halls under a steep gable roof.

The walls are almost one meter thick reaching below the mighty roof. The layout of the rooms is symmetrical being characterized by spacious foyers and considerable ceilings. Late medieval elements such as walls made of timber and narrow staircases shape much the interior of the house; windows and pillars made of yew wood, as well as carved ceilings.

In 1786, the lintel of the main entrance door and well as various doors inside the house were replaced; in some rooms parquet floorings were laid and in the southern drawing room a tiled stove has been built in. No other structural modifications were made since that time.

The building is considered one of the few houses of the late Middle Ages in Switzerland largely still in its original condition and it's now available for photoshoots and film productions.
