Laudon House

Laudon House

It was probably built after the Thirty Years' War, probably by joining two older buildings, of which the entrance portal has been preserved. However, the vaults are mostly early Baroque. In 1790, the famous Austrian military leader Ernst Gideon von Laudon died here after a short illness. On the 200th anniversary of his death in 1990, a bust with a memorial plaque commemorating General Laudon was installed on the facade of the house. In 1809, a ballroom and theatre hall was built on the first floor, where balls and theatrical performances took place until 1881. The early classical façade from the last quarter of the 18th century was eclectically altered in the late 19th century. Further alterations followed in the second half of the 20th century.

Laudon House houses the Visitor Centre

Since 2011, Laudon House has been home to the Visitor Centre, which includes a Tourist Information Centre, a Tonak hat shop, a stylish Caffé Caffé café and two interactive exhibitions. In addition, both children and adults can play the game Laudoncaching, similar to the increasingly popular Geocaching.

More information on the exhibitions can be found here.
