Welcome to the picturesque Dhünn Valley! In front of the impressive backdrop of the Altenberg Cathedral and surrounded by beautiful forests, you are welcomed by the family-run house, which skillfully combines historical ambience with modern elegance. Where once monks of the Cistercian abbey sought seclusion, guests find peace and relaxation here today. The first-class cuisine of the house, which does not only delight gourmets, provides for moments of pleasure. Experience the hospitality of the mountains and the best service, which will make you forget everyday life from the first to the last moment.

 

Your hosts

Once the farmyard of Altenberg Abbey, the ensemble of buildings between the cathedral and St. Mark's Chapel still radiates peace and permanence today. Inside, in harmonious contrast, the rooms have been revitalised with new esprit. The philosophy of the host family Prinz zu Sayn-Wittgenstein, which has been running the house since January 2020, reveals a personal signature and a stylish eye for upscale living comfort. Unobtrusive elegance and selected modern touches go hand in hand and revive the monastic past of the place with new flair. The dedicated team continues the long tradition of mountain hospitality with great passion and makes your holiday feel beautiful.

Cathedral Garden

Tall lime trees and old chestnut trees line our terrace and invite you to linger casually. The monastic tranquillity and the special atmosphere with the cathedral in view promise pleasant hours in convivial company. The Domgarten menu offers a small but fine selection of simple dishes. In the afternoon we serve Bergische waffles, ice cream specialities and a selection of cakes and tarts.
