Italy Castle Wedding at Castel Fragsburg
A World-Renowned Spa Town
Merano, located in South Tyrol, Italy, is famed for its spa facilities and natural beauty. High above this imperial town, Castel Fragsburg offers a unique venue space for an Italy castle wedding. This location is where the sun shines the longest, and the majestic South Tyrolean mountains are prominent.
Historic Venue
Adjacent to the hunting lodge, Castel Fragsburg, the knight’s chateau Fragsburg Paternum has stood for nearly 400 years. Despite its age, the castle appears to float above the treetops of Fragsburg’s rocky cliffs. Dating back to the 13th century, this chateau is part of the Luxury Hideaway & Soul Retreat Castel Fragsburg, South Tyrol’s smallest 5-star hotel.
Enchanting Castle Grounds
Nestled in enchanting grounds spanning more than 50,000 square meters, the castle borders South Tyrol’s highest waterfall. Upon entering, visitors feel transported to another time, surrounded by inspiration and fairy tale-like scenery. The grounds are filled with blooming wisterias, roses, jasmines, and hydrangeas, creating a world of sweet scents and vibrant colors.
A Magical Setting
A winding path of paving stones leads from the gatehouse, under a chestnut tree, through the castle park, and up to the entrance gate. The courtyard, featuring a fairy tale fountain and a panoramic balcony, offers breathtaking views of the Merano valley. This setting is perfect for a memorable Italy castle wedding.
Unique Features
The castle’s unique features include its proximity to the highest waterfall in South Tyrol and the extensive castle grounds. The ambiance is enhanced by birdsong and the peaceful security of the imposing mountains. This venue offers a magical setting for weddings, with its fairy tale fountain and panoramic balcony providing stunning backdrops for photos.
