Der Wintergarten fügt sich nahtlos in das historische Ensemble des Gebäudes ein und bietet viel Platz für Individualität. A CHRUCH FOR ALL OCCASIONS On the way up to the Knappenhof, it appears unexpectedly - just below the hotel on a green meadow: the small, pretty little church. It was rebuilt in recent years, but it already seems familiar and blends in with its surroundings. With its wooden tower, it stands naturally against the imposing mountain backdrop. In future, it can be booked for celebrations such as weddings and christenings, but also for golden weddings. It will be open to all denominations. The doors of the church dedicated to Hildegard von Bingen will also be open for blessings or spiritual celebrations for second or third weddings. The famous saint from the Middle Ages would have enjoyed this. She would also like the interior; the modern altarpiece was designed by artist Virginie Bailly. The winner of the Strabag Kunstforum competition has delivered a powerful work that carries the spirit of the building. The Knappenhof church can accommodate up to 55 people. The flexible seating Kraftvoll. Das »Kircherl« beim »Knappenhof« ist Hildegard von Bingen geweiht. allows guests to be seated individually. And thanks to the installed loudspeakers, guests can also take part in a celebration on the forecourt of the church. THE BEST PLACE TO CELEBRATE Celebrations are held a few metres away on the beautiful sun terrace with a view of the mountains and the valley − or in bad weather and cool temperatures in the newly built stylish conservatory, which can accommodate 35 people. In this very special atmosphere, hospitality and service reside. The kitchen team led by Tomaž Fink spoil guests with regional delicacies or a gourmet menu. The focus here is on fine products from the region around the Rax and Schneeberg, such as young Schneebergland cattle, Schneebergland pork, fresh game that tastes of the herbs and meadows of the Rax, or Arctic char raised in the ice-cold and crystal-clear spring water high in the Schneeberg. There are also fine wines from the well-stocked wine cellar. To ensure that nothing stands in the way of a successful celebration, the staff at the »Knappenhof« read every wish from the guests’ eyes. Individual ideas and celebration wishes can be catered for in advance. <
