Kleßheim Castle and local area

Kleßheim Castle

The Kleßheim Castle was from 1690 commissioned by Archbishop Johann Ernst Graf Thun after plans by Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach built as a prince-archbishop's summer residence, together with the then always associated ornamental garden, the economic garden and also architecturally designed larger Fasanengarten. After the end of the prince-archbishopric of Salzburg it became a state and served as a residence for various Habsburgs. After the First World War it was the Elizabeth Duncan School. During the Nazi era, the palace was used for representation purposes, and on May 8, 1945, the official victory ceremony of the four victorious Allied powers was held here. In 1948 the Americans, in whose zone of occupation it was, returned it to the State of Salzburg. After the war it was used as an apartment for state visitors.

A casino owned by Casinos Austria has been located in the castle since 1993 , and the historic castle park was largely converted into a golf course (Golf & Country Club Salzburg) after 1955 . The Kavalierhaus was used as a guest house for visitors to Obersalzberg during the Nazi era . Later the Kavalierhaus served as a restaurant and event venue. In the meantime, the Kavalierhaus was also used as a boys' boarding school for the Kleßheim School of Tourism.

Today the Kleßheim area, apart from the structural fragmentation of the Westbahn-Autobahn-Line, has completely fused with the city, and the castle ensemble has lost much of its former exceptional location. Since 1976, however, almost the entire local area, including the palace complexes and alluvial forests of the Saalach and some adjacent areas of Siezenheim, has been designated as the Siezenheimer-Au landscape protection area  ( LSG 50 ). This covers 146.20  hectares and, according to the ordinance, serves to preserve "the particular natural beauty (natural forest stands including the remains of a natural hardwood meadow along the Salzach, ensemble of Kleßheim Castle)" and "the recreational value of the agricultural and cultural-historical particularly characteristic cultural landscape near the city ". Today this area also belongs to the protected green belt according to the spatial development concept for the Salzburg metropolitan area (REK). Palace and Park are also available as building and garden monument under monument protection .

Transport and infrastructure

Autobahn exit Kleßheim

In 1815 Maxglan laid out a poplar avenue, today's Kleßheimer Allee. The Kaiserin-Elisabeth-Westbahn was built by 1860 ; In the 20th century, the Liefering behind it , which had come to Siezenheim in 1849 with the formation of the local parishes, began to grow and in 1939 it was incorporated with parts of Rott to Salzburg.

Salzburg Airport was established as early as 1926, and Kleßheim is located relatively directly in its approach zone. In 1938, after the annexation of Austria , the construction of what was then the Reichsautobahn (now the Westautobahn (A1) ) began, but this came to a standstill in 1941. It was only completed here after the war, in the late 1950s. In the 1950s, the neighboring Taxham began to grow increasingly, and the first industrial park developed at the Kleßheim motorway junction .

Tourism schools in Salzburg-Kleßheim

In 2003, as a replacement for the Lehen Stadium and on the occasion of the European Football Championship in 2008, the EM Stadium , now the Red Bull Arena , was built directly at the motorway exit. This is no longer in Kleßheim, but belongs to the village of Rott .

Kleßheim is the location of the agricultural technical schools Kleßheim (in the old Meierhof) and the later Friedrich-Gugg-Schule , founded in 1957 as a hotel management school , today the Salzburg-Kleßheim tourism school (new building next to the LFS 1972).

The Salzburg-Taxham-Europark S-Bahn station provides a connection to the region's S-Bahn network within walking distance. Kleßheim can also be reached directly with the trolleybus line 1 and the Albus bus line 28.
