Description
This is the story of a building with history. It is both a shell and a content. And it is waiting to be filled with life again.
The so-called Herbertstöckl in Klagenfurt, located on St. Veiter Ring, in the middle of a park landscape, is an important historical building, built as a manor house. In the 17th century by the Mittnacht zu Werthenau family. At the beginning of the 19th century it was renovated and given its current façade.
On the first floor there is a salon decorated with five grisailles attributed to the director of the Vienna Academy, Caspar Franz Sambach. In the niches of this room there are four sculptures by L. Grossi. The property is accessed through the wrought iron late baroque garden portal.
The Herbertstöckl played a central role in the Carinthian Enlightenment. In the 1790s it served as an intellectual center where the writings of Immanuel Kant were intensively read and discussed. The industrialist Franz Paul von Herbert (1759–1811) and his sister Maria von Herbert (1769–1803) invited Austrian, German and Danish scholars to their salon to hold lively debates. The correspondence reached as far as Königsberg, which underlines the importance of the house for intellectual exchange.
Today, the Herbertstöckl is a listed building and is a testament to Klagenfurt's rich cultural and intellectual history.
We would be happy to give you a closer look at the building and its history. We look forward to hearing from you.
