History
Residential house was built on the old foundations in 1840-1841 by František Roubíček and rebuilt to its present form in the years 1882-1896 with the name Villa Klára. Since 1921 it is a registered Czech Republic cultural heritage site as Villa Schwaiger. In 2016 the Villa has been completely reconstructed and is proud to have re-opened its doors in 2017 as Hotel Schwaiger.
Hanuš Schwaiger (1854 – 1912), was educated in the “Arts” in Vienna and Salzburg, and lived with his family in the villa from 1897 to 1912. Here he found the serenity to create his art, and he has hosted many famous people such as Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk.
