Your hotel on Lake Reschen

Many people are familiar with it—the church tower that rises warningly from Lake Reschen in South Tyrol's Vinschgau Valley. Some have also heard the story of the villagers of Graun, whose houses were swallowed up by the floods of the Adige River in the course of a dam project. The Hotel Traube Post on Lake Reschen shares this fate.

Unique history

The church tower still stands unwavering and steadfast today, looking down on the people of Graun with a sense of warning and hope. They have rebuilt their village in a new location with great enthusiasm. This tragic and fascinating story is inextricably linked to the Hotel Traube Post on Lake Reschen, which now stands proudly near the lake.

The Theiner family also refused to be defeated after their original inn was flooded and rebuilt their beloved home. Some of the furniture from the old building was used to furnish the new one. Now in its fifth generation of family ownership, the simple inn has been transformed into a modern four-star hotel that impressively reflects the motivation and passion of its hosts.
