history

In a land register of Count Hugo III von Montfort from 1379 to 1409, the farm is named as a Montfort house property and referred to as a property for Schedler . In 1444 the farmstead with a larger tree garden is mentioned as the buttocks of the Bregenz citizen Leonhard Metzger. Metzger handed over the residence to the Bregenz St. Gallus parish church as a benefit.

In the second half of the 16th century, the estate was owned by the Schmid family, who were later ennobled with "von Wellenstein" (see also: Ansitz Wellenstein ). Then followed the related Adrian Abegg and from 1571 the captain Jakob von Altensteig. From 1590 to 1616 the residence belonged to the Benedictine monastery Weingarten, then there followed a rapid change of ownership into the 19th century, including the house of the Gugger von Staudach family. From the second half of the 19th century until the 1920s, the building housed the “Zum Walsertal” inn. The residence was restored in 1928 and has since served as a private residence again.

The German educator and writer August Wilhelm Grube lived in this house between 1871 and 1884 .
