Schloss Hohenkammer is run as a conference center and hotel for seminars, training programs, product presentations and company anniversaries. Its classic meeting rooms take from 15 to 180 people, and a set of creative rooms is designed for workshops. Weddings and private celebrations are also hosted. The castle stands in Hohenkammer, in Upper Bavaria north of Munich, and Munich Re has owned it and used it as a seminar venue since 2003.
Seminars and company events
The classic rooms come in four sizes, S, M, L and XL, from up to 15 people to up to 180, with technology matched to the room and service included in the package. The creative rooms are each built around a way of working. The Werkstatt für Neues is an empty room the team furnishes itself. The Altes Försterhaus is a secluded house with a garden on the Glonn river and a group room called Durchblick. The Turm der Ideen is a tower room with 12 m² of wall space and a 270-degree view, and the Giebinger Forst has mobile walls and the cannyboard collaboration tool. Hybrid XS is set up for hybrid meetings, backed by a digital meeting concierge, and outdoor sessions run in the garden with a classic room held in case of rain. Partners offer high ropes, archery, canoeing, orienteering and farm challenges.
Weddings and receptions
The castle has a wedding team, a wedding brochure and a planning checklist. The restaurant teams cater private celebrations, and decoration, bands, DJs, carriage rides and entertainers can be arranged through the house. A plan of the rooms for celebrations is available from the events team.
Accommodation
Bedrooms are spread across historic and modern buildings in the castle park, built in stone, wood and plaster, with timber from the castle's own forests. Categories include accessible, allergy-friendly, family and trainer rooms, and rooms with extra-long beds. Every room has WiFi and a work desk, and works by the artist Hamish Fulton hang in the rooms. A small wellness area has a Finnish sauna, a bio sauna and a gym.
Catering
The Alte Galerie serves Bavarian and Mediterranean dishes, largely organic, with much of the produce coming from Gut Eichethof, the house's own farm. Meeting days include a four-course lunch buffet, and the Biergarten am Schlosspark covers summer evenings.
History and setting
The lords of Camer built a castle here around 1042 and held it for more than 500 years. Burned in 1648, near the end of the Thirty Years' War, it was rebuilt in the Bavarian Renaissance style it keeps today. Later owners included the Preysing, Cotta and Vequel families. The Bavarian Raiffeisen cooperative moved in during 1917, the building became a training center in 1973, and Munich Re bought and restored it in 2003. In 2026 the venue placed second among pure conference venues in the Mein Tophotel Grand Prix.
