Arenenberg, Salenstein

Once the residence of Napoleon III's imperial family, Arenenberg is situated in an equally noble location: directly on Lake Constance, nestled between water and vineyards. However, the green heart of Arenenberg lies in its school garden, which has been used for educational purposes for over 100 years.

The garden, with its beautiful rose archway, serves an informative purpose in addition to recreation: for over a century, it has been used as a showcase for trainees in various professions. Furthermore, an exciting circular path introduces guests to the floral world.

‍

As a seminar location nestled in a rural idyll, Arenenberg provides an ideal setting for focused and creative gatherings. The grand ballroom can accommodate up to 120 people, and even small groups of 5 participants or more will find inspiring meeting spaces within the hotel.

‍

The imperial charm and noble privileges of yesteryear can still be felt today: intensive meetings can be combined with a relaxed wine tasting on site or a visit to the Napoleon Museum.
