"The House of the Roses" history & tradition

The Hotel Zum Rosenbaum belongs to the Pristinger family since generations, as far back as 1640, and since centuries it is known as “house of the roses”. 

In the marvelous rose garden a few scenes of a famous film “Heimatlos” (homeless) with Beppo Brehm, Marianne Hold, Joe Stöckl and Peter Weck were shot. 

We are renowned for our sincere hospitality, quality of our services and care for details.

A short history:  

1640:

The house is conducted as farm and bakery since generations.

1895:

Huge fire in Nalles in the Via Goldgasse;  the “house of the roses” is miraculously saved.  Stina Pristinger, a relation of the actual owner, Marion Pristinger, builds a chapel as remuneration.

1956/57:

The stable as well as the grain store are rebuilt and in 1957 the Pristinger family have  for the first time tourists as guests. Annemarie Pristinger is a tourism pioneer in Nalles and one of the first people to host tourists in her house. In the years to follow Annemarie and Lorenz Pristinger (Marion’s grandparents) inaugurate the actual Zum Rosenbaum Guest House.    

1960:

The bakery is moved into the adjacent house. 

1983:

Ilse and  Herbert Pristinger (Marion’s parents) take on  the direction of the guest house.

After 100 years the chapel is restored. Father   Roman Morandell, prior at the convent  Maria Plain  near Salzburg, a relative and trusted person of the family, hangs up a painting of Our Lady in the chapel. This painting represents Our Lady who survived a fire broken out in the bakery of the Maria Plain convent.
