Combining traditional and mordern

4 Centuries of offering Hospitality

Originally known as "Glasnergut" and listed in the Salzburg trade registry from 1664 as having a "tavern or inn license", it was probably renamed as the "Gasthof zum Stern" when tourism started at the end of the 19th century. 

Hunting had already provided the first impulse for rapidly growing tourism in the middle of the century: the Princes of Auersberg and Fürstenberg came to the Zillertal for their annual autumn hunt and alighted at the "Gasthaus zum Stern".

THE NEUE POST AS IT WAS ...

In 1825, it was acquired by Herr Josef Wildauer and, 20 years later, passed on to his son Ludwig Wildauer.

During this period, the post office was relocated to his establishment and it was renamed "Neue Post". It still carries this name today

Rebuilding 1992

IN THE COURSE OF TIME

In 1902, the Zillertal Railway was built as far as Mayrhofen, so that uncomfortable journeys by horse-drawn omnibus were no longer necessary and tourism experienced a new boom.

With the construction of the Penken cable car in 1954, the foundation for a 2nd season was laid.

THE NEUE POST IN 2009

The house, with all its varied history, has stood for 345 years. With high and low points, good and bad times.

But care has always been taken to offer guests a temporary home, food and drink, a roof over their heads and - last but not least - good entertainment.
