The origin of the castle
A fascinating
history
The origin of the current castle dates back over 300 years, when it was built on the vestiges of a building dating back to the 13th century.
During the Second World War, the castle was by turn a command post and a field hospital, thus undergoing many and very extensive damages.
Abandoned on the liberation of Luxembourg, the castle disappeared little by little in an engulfing vegetation as well as in the memory of the inhabitants.
In 2005, Freddy Lodomez, a passionate entrepreneur, literally fell in love and decided to fully restore this significant building heritage of Luxembourg.
The restoration work will last 3 long years during which hundred of artisans will work tirelessly to restore the castle to its yesteryear’s glory and beauty.
The present hotel started officially in October 2008, after the official classification as “a National Monument of Luxembourg” by the Government of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
Constantly evolving, the Urspelt Castle was notably expanded in 2016 with the addition of a 1800 m² wing, responding to the major demand for this unique hotel project.
DEEP RESPECT FOR THE HERITAGE
The castle
today
In the heart of a 20,000 m² private estate, Urspelt Castle offers you a unique stay, characterised by elegance, calm and optimal security.
The “Castle” itself is the residential part of the site. On three levels, it houses 57 luxuriously appointed 4-star superior rooms and suites, a beautifully decorated grand-ducal suite, a NUXE® Spa wellness area and a private area for a duo escape, and finally two fully equipped seminar rooms.
A Bar Lounge has also been created in the historic cellars, by manually digging the original basement of the Château. During this work, a second well was discovered and exposed.
The “Château” is connected by a monumental portico to the “Ancienne ferme”, which houses the culinary area with a splendid terrace and the gastronomy area, recently renovated and fitted out in the old barn.
The exterior spaces consist of the large central paved courtyard, a beautiful park with fountain, an orchard and a private car park with 120 spaces.
A heated & covered patio is also installed along the historic walls, overlooked by a terrace with spa & heated pool (May to October included).
Three charging stations for electric vehicles have been installed.
Everything is in place to make your visit, stay or event an unforgettable and rewarding experience.
