Gut Guggenthal

Gut Guggenthal is a protected heritage estate on elevated ground near Salzburg with multiple buildings and structures from different periods. The property spans a large area and includes residential buildings alongside a former brewery and a villa.

The estate was first documented in 1272 and underwent major transformation from 1860 onward when Georg Weickl acquired it and developed an industrial complex with a brewery. This expansion shaped the property for many generations and established it as an important local economic center.

The small chapel on the grounds reflects local building traditions with its simple, functional design. Visitors can see how rural communities integrated their places of worship into the everyday landscape.

The site is easily viewable from its elevated position and the various structures are clearly visible. Visitors should expect uneven terrain and allow ample time to explore the individual buildings and areas.

A fire in 2018 destroyed the historic brewery building and caused major changes to the preservation plans for the complex. This event marked a turning point in the history of the estate and significantly influenced future planning.
