Seminars and company events
Hotel FederWERK in St. Georgen im Schwarzwald hosts seminars, board meetings, training days and company celebrations for up to 100 people, with 51 bedrooms in the same building. The conference area covers 240 m² and is split into rooms of 40 to 165 m², so a group can run a plenary session and break-outs without leaving the hotel.
The team plans conferences and company events on request and prepares a tailored offer. Rooms can be laid out freely, presentation equipment and moderation material are on hand, and high-speed Wi-Fi and wired LAN run through every room. Christmas parties are part of the offer too. For small creative workshops, the Denkwerkstatt in the Roof Garden seats up to 15 at one table, and the Hermann Papst Museum across the street adds a boardroom for 12 around an oval table.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings, anniversaries, milestone birthdays and private dinners are held in the event rooms and the restaurant. The kitchen proposes set menus and buffets built on fresh regional produce, and the team helps match wines from the hotel cellar. The hotel's florists handle decoration, and the staff can book musicians, entertainers and photographers. The largest banquet layout, in the combined St. Raphael and Scandale rooms, seats 78.
Rooms and capacities
St. Raphael (90 m²) takes up to 40 in theater rows, 36 at a banquet or 21 in a U-shape. Scandale (60 m²) holds 40 in rows or 24 around a block table. Opened together, the two make a 165 m² room for 100 in theater style, 78 at a banquet, 55 in a U-shape or 46 in classroom layout. Museros (40 m²) suits 15 to 17 people. The Roof Garden Denkwerkstatt (36 m²) is glazed all around and seats 15 at a table or 20 in rows, without conference technology. Prices, day-delegate packages and room hire are quoted on request.
Accommodation
The 51 bedrooms measure 25 to 47 m² and are spread over four floors. The three categories are named after stages of a business, Development, Production and Sales, a nod to the building's industrial past. Single rooms are doubles for single use, some rooms have connecting doors, one is adapted for guests with reduced mobility, and rooms on the third floor can be booked with a balcony. Guests can use a sauna and fitness area, the lobby lounge and bar, and the Rooftop 360° bar.
Catering
The FeinWERK restaurant serves light seasonal cooking at dinner, with traditional recipes reworked and dry-aged beef from the hotel's own ageing chambers. The same kitchen handles meeting breaks, lunches and event menus. A south-facing café terrace adds an outdoor option in good weather.
History and setting
The building was a clock factory. For almost 130 years the Tobias Bäuerle company was one of the largest clockmakers in St. Georgen. After the site had stood empty for a long time, the Papst family, entrepreneurs from the town, bought it, and the converted building opened as Hotel FederWERK and the FeinWERK restaurant in September 2018. St. Georgen lies between 800 and 1,000 meters above sea level on the Rhine-Danube watershed, where the Black Forest Railway reaches its highest point.
Getting there
St. Georgen (Schwarzw) station is about 800 meters from the hotel, and a shuttle runs to and from the station Monday to Friday by arrangement. By car, the hotel is reached from the A5 via the Offenburg exit and the B33, or from the A81 via the Villingen-Schwenningen exit and the B33. Free parking is available on site, garage spaces should be reserved in advance, and charging points serve electric cars and e-bikes.
