Seminars and company events
Hofgut Dagobertshausen hosts private and company events for 30 to 230 guests in two renovated barns, a small brewery and the courtyard and garden around them. The estate lies in Dagobertshausen, a village district of Marburg in Hesse, about five kilometers from the town center, and is run by VILA VITA Marburg.
The estate is offered as a meeting venue for larger groups who want a rural setting. Both barns are booked for meetings and company celebrations, and the outdoor areas give room for breaks: a large inner courtyard, a landscaped garden, a terrace and lounge corners. Incentives and company parties are part of the offer, and a conference factsheet with full capacity figures is available from the events team. For a plenary of more than 220 people or a full congress, VILA VITA also runs the Congresszentrum Marburg for up to 520, which can be combined with an evening at the Hofgut.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings take place among the fields and meadows of the estate. Both barns have an outdoor area for a non-civil ceremony, held at set times of 2:30, 3:30 or 4:30 p.m. The site does not say that civil ceremonies can be held on the estate. There is no fixed closing time; a volume limit applies from 10 p.m., DJs and electronic drums are allowed, and setup starts at 10 a.m. on the day.
Rooms and capacities
The Eventscheune is the larger barn, with exposed timber beams, a gallery reached by steps, oak tables with upholstered benches, a terrace and a garden for summer parties. The estate gives up to 220 guests inside, and up to 160 for a wedding dinner. The Kulturscheune is the smaller barn, for up to 90 guests, with a timber-frame interior, chandeliers, oak tables with upholstered chairs, a sun terrace for the aperitif and a lift. Die Brauerei, a small brewery with large copper kettles and a bar, suits smaller parties. A small distillery completes the set.
Accommodation
The Schlafgut, a guesthouse in country-house style on the estate, has eight rooms. It is booked only together with an event, from five rooms. Larger groups can take a room allocation at Hotel Rosenpark in Marburg, also run by VILA VITA.
Catering
Catering comes from the house, with crockery and cutlery included, and outside caterers are not allowed. Popular formats are a barbecue, which can be fully vegetarian, classic buffets and table buffets. Drinks are sold as packages. Part of the produce comes from the estate's own farm, which grows strawberries, asparagus, potatoes and cereals.
History and setting
The Hofgut sits in the Upper Hessian hills and combines an event venue, a restaurant, a guesthouse and a working farm. Since 2013 it has held the Dagobertshäuser Landpartie, a country festival with guest chefs, and it also runs a Christmas market, concerts and a barbecue day.
Getting there
About 400 free parking spaces are available on site. Marburg, with its main railway station, is about five kilometers away, so guests arriving by train finish the trip by taxi or shuttle.
