Schadau Castle was built from 1846 to 1854 for the banker Abraham Denis Alfred de Rougemont based on planes by Pierre-Charles Dusillon in a historic mixed style of Tudor Gothic and Neo-Renaissance inspired by the Loire castles. It is a listed building of national importance, under protection of the government and owned by the city of Thun.
The castle was renovated over two years and opened on June 1, 2019 as a boutique hotel with 9 rooms, restaurant, bar, veranda and garden terrace. The vision: being an animated historic building.
The location in the Schadau Park, an English garden directly on Lake Thun, with a view of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau mountains, offers the perfect setting for the Schadau Castle experience.
