… Schloss Velden

… The castle in Velden was built between 1590-1603 by Barholomäus Khevenhüller. In 1762 a fire ruined major parts of the chateau, but was re-structured by the industrialist Ernts Wahliss in 1890 into a luxury resort. In 1990 it was purchased and became a private residence of a German industrialist Gunter Sachs and also used for several films and also the famous TV series “Ein Schloss am Wörthersee” in the 1990s. Today, Schloss Velden has been designed and built into a 6-star luxury hotel.

The castle in it’s beauty, can be seen in Velden just 7 km away. Velden is also famous for it’s casino and jet-set flair.

Our guests are most probably having a great day at the lake with 30°C, sun and just a small breeze.

I will tend to the cooking now and look forward to the fireworks this evening.

So long - enjoy
