Building Feldschlösschen brewery with pub and factory owner's villa

The Feldschlösschen complex is a brewery, pub, and villa building in Rheinfelden that combines production facilities, dining spaces, and residential areas under one roof. The structures show architectural details typical of 19th century industrial enterprises where owners lived alongside their operations.

The site was established in 1876 when two entrepreneurs converted an existing factory into a modern brewery. This founding occurred during a period of rapid industrial growth along the Rhine valley.

The complex shows how a brewery owner lived and worked in the same location, blending family residence with business operations in a way that shaped daily life here. Visitors can still see the different spaces that reveal how this integrated lifestyle worked in practice.

The location sits near Rheinfelden railway station and is easily walkable from the town center. Visitors can arrange brewery tours in advance and enjoy meals in the on-site restaurant while sampling different beer varieties.

The brewery has a direct railway spur that was built in the late 1800s specifically to move beer to other regions. This rail connection is a rare surviving piece of industrial infrastructure that reveals how shipping logistics worked during that era.
