Schloss Wartegg 

The castle garden that's a refuge for people as well as animals

Slow Food from the garden, low CO₂ through hydropower, socially committed – a castle that makes an impact today and plans for tomorrow.

FROM GROUND TO PLATE
In the 2,500 m² vegetable and herb garden, ProSpecieRara varieties thrive using biodynamic methods. Beehives and a small flock of sheep complement the garden – and the produce goes straight into the kitchen. The gastronomy is 100 % organic-certified and follows the Slow Food philosophy: fresh, seasonal, artisanal and value-driven.

ENERGY FROM WITHIN
Electricity comes from the castle’s own hydroelectric plant and certified Naturemade Star green power. CO₂ emissions remain consistently below 10 kg per guest and night. Even wood from the park is reused – for furniture and renovations. Resources are not just saved, but respected.

SYSTEMATIC SOCIAL IMPACT
Schloss Wartegg offers a special place of learning for apprentices. People with disabilities are fully integrated into the team – not as a token gesture, but as a daily standard. This creates a holistic cultural space: for nature, people and a future built on quality over speed.
