Gasthof Schloss Aigen

Salzburg


A country manor with an elegantly rustic interior and a chestnut-shaded courtyard, Gasthof Schloss Aigen excels in Austrian home cooking. The Forstner family’s house speciality is ‘Wiener Melange’, four different cuts of meltingly tender Pinzgauer beef, served with apple horseradish, chive sauce and roast potatoes, best matched with robust Austrian wines. Bus 7 stops at Bahnhof Aigen, a 10-minute stroll away.
