Ustaria dl Baga (today the Hotel Gardena Grödnerhof)
From sculptor’s workshop to five-star hotel: the development of Gröden in miniature
The development of Gröden all began with the Ustaria dl Baga, now the Grödnerhof. In 1911, sculptor Ferdinand Perathoner (dl Baga) built a villa complete with workshop on one of the meadows of the Vidlonch farm and, just two years later, added a coffee house for aristocratic spa guests.
In the early 1920s, the Demetz-Bernardi family purchased the property and, in the years to follow, the neighbouring “Schattenheim.” The buildings were united, and, over the years, the modest guesthouse transformed to become the five-star Relais & Châteaux Hotel.
