The R\u00f6ssl Bianco begins on the first floor and extends up into the airy attic, featuring inner terraces and a magnificent exposed roof structure.<\/p>\n

R\u00f6ssl Bianco has always been an inn for ordinary people. It lacks expensive architectural elements, stone frames, or frescoes. The building materials came from the surrounding area and were brought in and installed with great effort: stone, clay bricks, lime, and wood. During the renovation starting in 2016, this was carefully respected: old beams, floorboards, clay tiles, and stones were reused, allowing the soul of the historic inn to keep breathing.” font_container=”tag:p|text_align:left|color:%23383633″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#232323″ scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”padding-8-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color=”#e8dfd3″ background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” content_layout=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” bottom_margin=”4%” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in-from-bottom” animation_easing=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”The restoration of R\u00f6ssl Bianco was accompanied by architectural researchers, who identified several construction phases across the height and length of the building. The cellars facing the arcades, the ground floor, and parts of the first floor feature Romanesque masonry dating back more than 800 years. The 15th-century Gothic style is especially evident in the famous \u201cGothic Hall.\u201d The 16th-century Renaissance can be seen on the second floor, in Room 1 and in the eastern exterior wall. The Baroque period, visible on the arcade side of the second floor, is expressed through stucco ceilings, a tiled stove, wide wooden floorboards, and decorative doors (1781). During the Historicist period, in the second half of the 19th century, the second-to-last major renovation took place (MDCCCLII = 1852, Room 9), affecting the south-facing lean-to roof, the bar, and the traditional dining room.<\/p>\n

A special experience lies in the many preserved traces of former residents and guests: signs of use, wear, layers of paint, soot, and much more. An old inn as a true hard drive of history. Restoration without judgment \u2013 even an old inn stove deserves a life after renovation.<\/p>\n

In 1974, the inn was closed. It fell into decline and never followed the tourism boom. Instead, it remained a meeting place for old Merano locals, farmers from the surrounding valleys, and military men, complete with a jukebox and a touch of sin and scandal. In 1981 it made its final public appearance as a film set (Zoderer: Das Gl\u00fcck beim H\u00e4ndewaschen, directed by Masten).<\/p>\n

Then came a long sleeping beauty phase, serving as a refuge for pigeons and cats. In 2015, the property was sold from Haller Algund to Haller Passeier, beginning the planning and renovation phase.<\/p>\n

In 2018, it reopened as B&B&B.
