In 2015 the estate found us. Since then we have walked past, around, and inside. We dreamed: how to make this a place for friends, unleash its magic and add ours.
We couldn’t resist the temptation. In the coming months – hopefully not years – we are creating a house out of friendship for friends.
The foundation is the Renaissance estate, which was carefully renovated from the ground up in close consultation with the heritage office using original materials and techniques. Eleven rooms are being created for us and our friends; And those who want to become friends.
Next to the estate’s gate, the remains of a collapsed hen house stood alone. There was very little left to preserve here, so we’re going to build an independent yet integrating new building: the ‘Haus am Tor’.
Dr. Zeno Bampi is responsible for the architectural planning of the estate and the overall general planning. South Tyrolean architecture experts agree: Who else? Franz Kosta and Werner Reifner are responsible for the Haus am Tor, whose design was the winner of an invited competition chaired by Florian Hartmann.
When will it be ready? We can’t say exactly yet, as one or the other craftsman is still at work at the moment. But if everything goes well, we will open in June 2022.

All the photos were taken by Paul Dibiasi from Tramin, a wonderful person with a great feeling for the magic of people and places. He manages to bring out the unique without staging. We are very grateful to him for accompanying our project from the very first minute and hopefully, dear Paul, you will continue to do so in the future. Thank you very much.
