history

Country palace and monastery

Like the surrounding courtyards on Hellbrunner Allee, the courtyard was also built before 1650 and was originally called the Lasserhof . The castle was first owned by the Dückher family and, from 1677, the Counts of Martinitz . After Prince Archbishop Johann Ernst von Thun founded or donated the Rupertiorden (Knightly Order of St. Rupert), an order that had the task of promoting “the education and rewarding of good warriors from the Salzburg landed gentry”, Johann Ernst Thun also left this court to the order. The high-ranking employees of the order were committed to celibacy. Only after the order of knights was abolished in 1811 did the farm return to private ownership. In 1834 Peter Poschacher is named as the owner, in 1867 Rupert Freiherr von Imhof acquired the property and he gave the building a neo-baroque facade; Later it was expanded several times, and in 1931 the first historicizing wing extension was added, designed by the well-known master builder Martin Knoll (1888–1937).

Hotel Kaiserhof and Schlosshotel St. Rupert

In 1952 it was rededicated to a hotel that was first known as the Kaiserhof and then from 1967 onwards was called the Rupertihof . The name Rupertihof was given to the castle in the revival of an earlier name after Rupert von Imhof, the owner after 1867. The building was last used as the St. Rupert Castle Hotel .

Today's Gwandhaus

The current headquarters of the costume manufacturer Gössl was recently named Gwandhaus . In 2004, another wing of the palace was added, and the owner Gerhard Gössl had a ballroom built into it. At the end of December 2018, Gössl sold the Gwandhaus to the property developer Planquadrat. Gössl's traditional costume shop itself is located on the top floor of the former estate. Attached is a small house museum, in which traditional costumes from bygone times, handicrafts and showpieces from the alpine cultural area are shown. The restaurant is also located in the Gwandhaus. The building is also available as an event location.

The Meierhof on Hellbrunner Allee

Immediately to the west on the avenue is the old Meiergut of the Adelshof.
