history

In 1860 an inn with a post office was built on this site, with a post office for the Reichspost and a stop for the Neumarkt - Predazzo stagecoaches for travelers.

On June 10, 1860, the entrepreneur Giuseppe Cirillo Rizzoli from Cavalese submitted a request to the general municipality of Fleims to purchase the land around the Kaltenbrunner Quelle for the purpose of building a brewery and restaurant. The kuk district office issued the declaration of no objection. The purchase agreement was signed on February 18, 1861. The first attempts at brewing began as early as the end of 1862. Production started at full speed in 1863. At the brewery inn, built in 1860, the post office was also set up, with a post office for the Reichspost and a stop for the Neumarkt - Predazzo stagecoaches for travelers.

Cirillo Rizzoli was succeeded by his son Respicio as the owner in 1872. After he died in 1883, his widow Emma Franzelin from Auer ran the Kaltenbrunn brewery until 1893, when their son Giuseppe Cirillo took over the business. At the time of the beginning alpinism , the Gasthof Kaltenbrunn was an important starting point for tours of the Dolomites and later even had a lawn tennis court for the - in the early days mainly British - tourists.

After a major fire in 1903, the main building was raised by one floor and then operated as the Hotel Fontanefredde . In 1905 the systems were sold to Josef Kräutner from the Blumau brewery . In 1906 the Brauerei-Blumau-Genossenschaft mbH took over the property of Kräutner.

At the end of the First World War , the brewery in Kaltenbrunn ceased production. The facilities were partly looted and partly damaged. Although the Fiemme Valley Railway was built here during the war and Kaltenbrunn also had a train station, operations were no longer started. At the end of 1918 it was taken over by Josef Gallmetzer (Wastl). In 1925 he handed the building complex over to his cousins ​​Josef and Anton Gallmetzer (Pitschl).

Despite the relatively short production time, the brewery became the center of today's Kaltenbrunn settlement, as a number of employees settled here. The establishment of the school and the local church of St. Joseph also go back to this time. In the old buildings of the brewery an inn, a now were Kolonialwarenhandlung (later general store) and a gas station operated.
