schloss oberhofen

            The romantic castle complex with its keep built around 1200 has a varied history of ownership. Bought in 1844 by the Neuchâtel-Prussian count family de Pourtalès and converted into a summer residence, the castle acquired its present appearance. Since 1954, a museum has been set up inside, which traces the history of the former inhabitants.
The main focus is on the 19th century and the count family who owned the castle at that time. The museum covers both the lords and the servants who lived under the same roof. Their sleeping chambers have been restored and are open to the public since 2017. The former castle kitchen is also newly accessible and can be experienced in an interactive presentation.
At the top of the tower is the Oriental smoking salon commissioned by Count Pourtalès, which conveys a unique atmosphere and offers a spectacular view over the lake and the mountains.
The castle chapel dates from the 15th century and features impressive wall paintings.
The castle park of Oberhofen is one of the most magnificent gardens in the Alpine region. With its striking groups of trees, exotic shrubs, a shady arbor and colorful flower beds, the historic landscape garden is an ideal oasis for relaxing and enjoying.
