Von Tscharner Schloss Reichenau

Schloss Reichenau, the Von Tscharner castle and wine estate in Reichenau, Graubünden, hosts seminars, business events, private parties and weddings. Six rooms on the estate hold up to 200 guests for an aperitif, a meal and a party. The castle chapel seats up to 90 for a ceremony. The estate sits where the Vorderrhein and the Hinterrhein meet.

Seminars and company events The castle plans company events for teams that want to work in historic rooms or outdoors. Five rooms are named for seminars: the Grüner Saal, the Billiard room with its garden terrace, the Library, the Louis Philipp Zimmer and the Spiegelsaal. A separate room document with details is available from the event office. Between sessions, the estate proposes a wine tasting in the castle cellar, a castle tour, river rafting on the Vorderrhein, a bike tour or a hike, a walk into the Ruinaulta gorge, a trip to the Crestasee or the Caumasee, a visit to the Kunkelspass and an excursion to the Bündner Herrschaft wine region.

Weddings and receptions Weddings are a core offer. A couple can hold a civil ceremony in the Grüner Saal, the Spiegelsaal or the castle chapel. The two halls take about 50 guests and the chapel takes 50 to 90. The chapel is open to either a Catholic or a Reformed priest, and the bells ring as guests cross the garden. Civil ceremonies are booked through the Imboden registry office, and free ceremonies can take place in the chapel, in a hall, in the garden or in the castle park. The chapel or a hall serves as the bad-weather option. After the ceremony, six different rooms hold up to 200 people for an aperitif with the estate's wines, a dinner and a party. Rooms can be combined, and the park and an exclusive wine cellar belong to the setting.

Rooms and capacities The six rooms are listed with a room document rather than on the web page, and the page gives no figure per room except for ceremonies. The Grüner Saal and the Spiegelsaal hold about 50 guests for a ceremony. The castle chapel holds 50 to 90. All six rooms together hold up to 200 guests for a wedding. The Grüner Saal, the Spiegelsaal, the Billiard room with its garden terrace, the Library and the Louis Philipp Zimmer are the rooms named for seminars and private events.

Catering For parties and business events, the team plans and supervises the event and recommends a suitable caterer, since the choice of caterer matters as much as the choice of venue. The estate also runs its own events with food and wine, such as the Wine and Dine evenings, and wines from the castle cellar are served at the aperitif.

History and setting The castle is a cultural and historical site that combines wine, food and events, with a wine estate and an asparagus farm around it. Visitors can book castle tours and cellar tastings with the winemakers. The site lies in Reichenau, in the municipality of Tamins, at the confluence of the Vorderrhein and the Hinterrhein, a place the estate describes as a source of strength for Graubünden.

Getting there The address is Reichenauerstrasse 59, 7015 Reichenau. The event office answers by phone on +41 81 641 11 95 and by email, and a page on the site gives the directions.
