Quiet Luxury on Austria's Lake Fuschl
July 23, 2024 in Travel & Destinations by Charlotte Sinclair
The tranquil charm of Austria's Lake Fuschl is a testament to quiet luxury. On this lake, diesel motorboats are banned, ensuring a silence so profound that the fluttering wings of butterflies can be heard. Yet, the opulence here is unmistakably grand. Recently, the Fuschl Castle has reopened after extensive renovations and rebranding as the Rosewood Schloss Fuschl.
Built in the 15th century as a hunting lodge for the Archbishop of Salzburg, the castle later served as the summer residence of Joachim von Ribbentrop, the German Foreign Minister during the Third Reich. Rosewood Hotels & Resorts have meticulously restored the castle, blending its historical grandeur with modern luxury.
Now, guests can enjoy the breathtaking calm of the lake from the perfect setting of this historic hotel. For those wishing to explore the serene waters, the hotel offers boats with silent electric motors, maintaining the lake's peaceful ambiance.
Visitors to the Salzburg Festival should not miss this exquisite experience, where history, luxury, and nature combine in perfect harmony.
