For generations people have come together at the Krone Sarnen. It’s a place to eat, drink and celebrate. But also for discussions and debates: the council has conducted its meetings in the Sääli of Krone.
1963 the corporation Freiteil bought the hotel Krone. After 10 years it was shut down and reopened 1980. Over 20 years the corporation ran the hotel with the director couple Bruno and Uschi Bachmann.
After a fire in the attic at New Year’s Eve 2001 the attic rooms were rebuilt. In 2004 Alex and Greetje Pedolin were the first leasers who managed the popular seminar and event hotel. After the devastating floods in August 2005 the Krone needed a complete renovation. In May 2006 the hotel was reopened: new rooms, an urban restaurant, the culture and event basement “freeheit” as well as a spa were added to the hotel. Several seminars, weddings and other events take place in the well-spaced rooms of the Kronesaal. The plane trees with their cooling shadow on the modern terrace attracts locals and visitors from everywhere to stop by.
Since 2012 the host couple Jose and Klara Inderbitzin welcome the guests at the Krone. Under their management the corporation Freiteil continues to renovate the hotel.
