Our Mission
Preserving Heritage - Building Future
As graduates of our beloved alma mater, we invite you to join us in a very special project: saving the Schloss! For decades, the Schloss has stood as a symbol of our institution's history and legacy. However, the passage of time has taken its toll, and the castle is in need of restoration and repair. Without intervention, this historic gem faces the risk of decay. Now, it's time to rally together and ensure its preservation for generations to come.
History
Schloss Buchhof
In 1841 Herr Karl Ritter von Maffei purchased the property, which remained in his family until 1923.
The original Schloss was built in a very plain style. On these grounds, Herr Maffei decided in 1875 to build a new and more elaborate Schloss, the current building with its turret and imposing façade. The façade carries the coat of arms of the Ritter von Maffei family.
After the death of Guido von Maffei, Buchhof was leased to a number of different tenants, resulting in neglect of the upkeep of the property.
