The “Meng zu Niffenau”—as the Menkenbauer was called back then—has existed since 1691, initially as nothing more than a small farm. In 1753, the Elector appointed “Mengg” as the innkeeper of Ruhpolding. From that time on, it served as a resting place for the “Hölzer”—carriers who transported wood for salt barrels on horseback over the Jochberg to Reichenhall, the ducal salt works. The original preserved Lüftel paintings on the historic farmhouse also date from this period. In 1837, the farm was purchased by Josef Oberhauser and has been run by the family ever since—now in its sixth generation. As early as 1937, guests were accommodated for the first time, at that time by Maria and Josef Maier, who served as Ruhpolding’s former mayor for twenty years. In 1950, the sawmill was built and served as a source of income alongside farming and the small lodging business. In 1952, Touropa sent the first special trains to Ruhpolding, marking the beginning of tourism. Initially, only simple rooms were rented out in the farmhouse and Haus Anneliese, until the guesthouse was built in 1970.
