SCHLOSS FUSCHL, A LUXURY COLLECTION RESORT & SPA
History & Story
In such an exquisite spot of land as the spit that stretches into Lake Fuschl, the archbishop’s seat of nearby Salzburg was not hidden for long. In 1450, Schloss Fuschl was built there as a country seat where the archbishops hunted and drew strength for their official duties from the vibrant nature.
Around 500 years later, the grand residence became the setting for a film about a queen: in the 1950s, Schloss Fuschl doubled as Possenhofen, the castle in which the future Queen of Austria was born. Here, Romy Schneider, aka Sissi in the film, spent her happy early years with her “Papili”.
