The renovation works at Klessheim Castle proceeded at a busy speed these last months. Back in spring 2015, the renovation works started, first with the construction of two extension buildings with a total area of 1,045m2 at the back side of the castle. In this second phase, the roof, the truss and the façade of the Casino Salzburg are being restored. Works at the façade are nearly accomplished: the cleaning of the stone, the repair works at all windows and metal sheets and the surface. So far, more than 11,000 hours went into the restoration of the roof, sculptures and stone elements!
Project manager Mag. (FH) Ing. Martin Sostar: „ The restoration of historic Klessheim Castle is proceeding fast. With a thoughtful eye to every detail and in intense cooperation with the Federal Monuments Office, the Casinos Austria very carefully seek to conserve most of the original appearance of this 18th century castle. Our long-term experience in the renovation and restoration of historic buildings is a valuable asset in this project.”
