The Hotel

A castle
as hideaway

Today Bernstein Castle is a small, family run hotel with nine lovingly restored rooms. We offer to experience the flair of a time long gone and an astonishing view over the "Tauchen" valley.

The castle

800 years of history.
And thousands of stories.

The first stone walls were built in the 12th century. The most famous resident of the castle was probably pilot and desert explorer László Almásy, who became famous when the movie "The English Patient" was released in 1996.
