A hotel complex in the form of an alpine village is to be built at the foot of the Neureuth.
The original plan has been approved since 2016, but construction is still not in sight.

A hotel designed as an alpine village at the foot of the Neureuth: This has been talked about since 2012.
Now the Tegernsee city council approved another amendment.
This largely repeals what the committee recently approved.
It's about making the design suitable for a future operator.
Tegernsee
- Ten Alm buildings, 64 beds, the little houses beautifully set in the mountain idyll: the fourth structure, i.e. change, to the development plan for the Almdorf hotel project approved in 2016 does not shake the basic structure.
The Tegernsee city council last dealt with requests for changes from the project developer Rainer Leidecker on June 13, 2023 (we reported).
Since 2012, together with Ernst Tengelmann, he has been pushing forward the idea of a hotel village in Alpine guise at the foot of the Neureuth.
Old plans adjusted
The search for investors and operators seems to be very difficult, because even after the Berghammer family's former Bergschwalbe café was demolished in 2019, nothing has happened on the site.
After more than a decade, the old plans no longer quite match what vacationers want today.
The tecture was submitted for two reasons, explains Tengelmann.
On the one hand, to take into account the changed guest behavior.
On the other hand, because this corresponds to the wishes of an investor.
Leidecker is not disclosing any further details about possible donors and operators for the time being.
Just this much: “We didn’t make the designs out of the blue.”
Number of changes reduced
What the city council approved in June fulfilled these wishes, but did not receive the approval of the district office as the approval authority.
According to building authority manager Bettina Koch, this was due to the number, not the type, of deviations from the approved development plan.
A new development plan would have been needed, a time-consuming process.
“They didn’t want that,” Koch reported of a conversation with the developers and representatives of the district office.
In close consultation, a fourth tecture plan was created, which almost corresponds to the status before the third tecture.
“A roll backwards,” said Mayor Johannes Hagn (CSU).
Thomas Mandl (SPD) followed up.
The city council approved the third structure so that the alpine village could be operated economically, he recalled.
“Is this now a step backwards into inefficiency?” That’s not the case, Koch replied: “Nothing has changed in terms of the number of beds.” Essentially, it’s all about the arrangement and orientation of the alpine houses.
Marcus Staudacher (Greens) asked about the deadlines for the realization of the new buildings set out in the urban development contract.
When would contractual penalties become due?
According to Mayor Hagn, this will be discussed in a closed meeting.
“The project should never have been approved”
Mandl took the opportunity to once again emphasize his rejection of the hotel complex in a sensitive area: “I was always against the project.
It should never have been approved.” Ultimately, the city council’s approval decision fell against three votes.
It is clear that there is no prospect of an extension of the execution deadlines.
For Hagn, however, it is not the timing of construction that is important: “I am relaxed about that.” What is important is that the hotel complex works in the end.
What there certainly won't be with him as mayor, says Hagn, is a conversion into condominiums.
