Its Schwarzwaldstube restaurant, with three Michelin stars, has been a symbol of culinary excellence for decades.<br>&nbsp;On 5 January 2020, a devastating fire destroyed the 230-year-old main building, reducing generations of hospitality memory to ashes. However, the Finkbeiner family reacted with determination: they would not only rebuild the complex, but do so with sustainability criteria and natural materials, reaffirming the hotel&#8217;s bond with its surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a><strong>Reconstruction with identity<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The new building, opened in April 2022, is made up of three volumes that recall the architectural tradition of the Black Forest with a minimalist and contemporary language. The commitment was not limited to aesthetics: the family entrusted the work to more than 50 companies from the region, maintaining consistency with its commitment to the community and the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a><strong>ClayTec in the skin of the project<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The reconstruction opted for <strong>ClayTec natural clay<\/strong>, a material that embodies sustainability, authenticity and comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>On the facade, <strong>ClayTec rammed-earth elements<\/strong> of around 40 m\u00b2 each were incorporated, adding texture and character.<br><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the lifts, the rammed-earth walls become an architectural detail that surprises and connects interior and exterior.<br><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the restaurant rooms, the artisan company <strong>Lehmbau Gl\u00fcck<\/strong> applied its creative <em>Blackforest Style<\/em> technique, combining clay adhesive and reinforcement mortar, clay base mortar with straw, and a top coat of coarse clay plaster with straw.<br><br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The result is surfaces with a natural, expressive and unique finish, evoking the essence of the Black Forest while creating a sophisticated atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a><strong>Aesthetics and indoor wellbeing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Clay provides more than beauty: it creates a <strong>balanced indoor climate<\/strong>, regulates humidity, traps dust and odours, and improves acoustics. The dining room conveys serenity and modernity in equal measure, combining light wood, clean lines and clay-textured walls that invite a complete gastronomic
