Since 1784
A country inn with a long history
From a former manor farm to a holiday farm with rooms and a restaurant – more than two centuries of history that the house still wears today.
The inn is run by Torsten Fischer, together with a team of 15.
Some know us as Landgasthaus Fischer, others as Pension Fischer or Ferienhof Fischer – it is always the same farm in the Walterstal near Freiberg.

Responsibility
Sustainably run
Our team of 15 puts a great deal into our guests' comfort. Looking after the environment matters to us: we heat with wood pellets, keep a miscanthus field, run a solar installation and maintain a conservation hedge.

For families
Here children can be children
Pony rides, a football pitch, a playground and a games corner with table tennis and billiards – and animals that are glad of visitors. We hold an award for family-friendly accommodation.
