Over 700 years – one place, many eras
From mountain farm to retreat — a story of time, change, and preservation.
The “Haagenhube” property has been around for centuries. It has seen work and hardship, fire and reconstruction, childhood summers and quiet years — and today it is a place of peace and reflection.
The first traces – since the 14th century
The property was first mentioned in the late 15th century; its structure probably dates back to 1479. It is one of the oldest farms in the Hinterwinkel region of Pusterwald and has been known over the years as Ebenperger-Hube, Ebner, and finally Hagenhube.
For centuries, the farm was a place of simple agriculture and quiet stability—shaped by work, the seasons, and nature, far from luxury and distraction.
1952 — The fire
In 1952, a major fire destroyed all of the farm buildings.
The old 19th-century alpine hut burned down completely—along with the stable, farm buildings, and the old chapel.
All that remained was the location.
1954 — Reconstruction and a new beginning
Just two years later, in 1954, the farm was rebuilt.
In a simple, functional style—supported by community, necessity, and the will to carry on.The reconstruction was not a romantic act, but a pragmatic one:
A roof over their heads. Space for animals. Space to live. This new house became the foundation for everything that came after.
A house of childhood and summer
For decades, the farm was a place of work—but also of childhood, summers, and simple rituals.This is where milking, haymaking, and repairs took place. This is where people ate, slept, and laughed.
Until 2002, there was no bathroom and no hot water. And yet, for many, this place was home.
2019 — The first change
In 2019, the house was cautiously opened to guests for the first time.Still simple, still raw — but with the desire to share this place.
Not as a hotel. Not as an event location.
But as something real.
2025 — Das Detox Almhaus
Between 2023 and 2025, the house underwent extensive renovation—with great respect for its history.The goal was not modernization at any cost, but careful renovation: more light, warmth, and tranquility.
And at the same time: less noise, less distraction, less speed.
Thus, the mountain farm became the Detox Almhaus — a place to switch off, pause, and take a deep breath.
