Welcome Hotel
Schloss Lehen
Bad Friedrichshall, known as the “City of Salt,” offers travellers a unique and charming destination. Visitors can delve into the region’s rich history by exploring the only public salt mine in Baden-Württemberg. However, what truly sets Bad Friedrichshall apart is its status as Germany's only three-river salt town, where the Kocher and Jagst rivers merge with the Neckar, creating a spectacular landscape as unique as the salt mine itself.
Centrally located in Bad Friedrichshall, our historic hotel offers an enchanting stay in what was once a 16th-century Renaissance castle. With individually designed rooms, this boutique hotel is nestled within serene castle gardens along the banks of the river Kocher, making it a hidden gem for nature lovers and those seeking tranquillity.
Thanks to its convenient location near Neckarsulm, Heilbronn, Stuttgart, Würzburg, Mannheim, and Nuremberg are easily accessible. Our hotel is also well-suited for business meetings and events. We offer three conference rooms and a modern, light-filled winter garden that opens directly onto the idyllic castle gardens.
