The Ital Reding-Hofstatt in Schwyz rents two rooms in a patrician house of 1609 and a baroque garden for company events, family events, lectures, seminars and concerts. The garden hall and the heated vaulted cellar each take 30 guests at a banquet, 40 at a seminar, 50 at a concert or lecture and 80 at a standing reception. The garden holds up to 80. The rooms can be rented all year, and the foundation behind the house can organize receptions and meals on request.
Seminars and company events
Company events and seminars are named among the uses the foundation recommends. The garden hall suits a seminar of 40 people, with rectangular or round tables to choose from. It measures 16.43 by 5.05 meters, or about 83 square meters, and sits on the ground floor of the main house. The vaulted cellar is below it and has a similar layout.
Lectures and concerts are also on the list. Both rooms hold 50 people in a concert or lecture setting. The foundation runs the house as a meeting place for the canton of Schwyz, so a cultural program fits the setting well.
Weddings and receptions
Family events are among the listed uses, and the garden can host a standing reception for up to 80. The official pages do not mention weddings or civil ceremonies, so ask the administration before planning one.
Rooms and capacities
The garden hall, on the ground floor, measures 16.43 by 5.05 meters. Its capacities are 30 guests at a banquet, 40 at a seminar, 50 at a concert or lecture and 80 at an aperitif.
The vaulted cellar, below the garden hall, can be heated. It measures 16.16 by 4.64 meters, or about 75 square meters, and has the same four capacities as the hall.
The garden, in front of the main house, has a stated capacity of up to 80 people. It is a baroque garden flanked by two shade pavilions.
Catering
The foundation can organize aperitifs, company events, family events and meals on request. Drinks and aperitif snacks are served by the foundation or by professional third parties, in agreement with the administration. Table linen must be rented from the Ital Reding-Haus. The foundation also invites organizers to ask for a non-binding cost summary.
History and setting
Ital Reding had the main house built from 1609. Inside the walled grounds stand three buildings: the main house, the Haus Bethlehem and the outbuilding, which is now the cantonal library. The main house has a large garden hall on the ground floor, a vaulted cellar beneath it and state rooms with richly paneled wood ceilings on the first floor. Haus Bethlehem was built in 1287. A hall with wall paintings, set up in the 16th century, lies in its masonry base.
The Ital Reding-Hofstatt is described as one of the most valuable building groups in the canton of Schwyz. Between November 1, 2026 and April 30, 2027 the Ital Reding-Haus and the Haus Bethlehem stay closed to individual visitors, while groups are welcome with advance notice and rooms can still be rented.
Getting there
The Ital Reding-Hofstatt stands in Schwyz, in central Switzerland. The official pages do not give a street address or public transport details, so ask the administration for access information.
