Family & History

From the traditional to the modern:

Over 80 years ago, my grandfather Ludwig Schneider, the co-founder of the Lech Ski School, built his guest house in the center of Lech am Arlberg. In our living room he installed a small office for the school, which came to be the meeting point for guests and ski teachers. There was always a lot going on in the „Ludwig House“. Guests felt welcomed and were like family in the setting of the Ludwig living room.

In 1973 my aunt Inge Schneider took over the family business. She gave the house it’s name “Pension Schneider” and ran it with her heart and soul for 44 years. Many long lasting loyal and frequently returning guests speak of her hospitality. ... Inge still continues to work with us.

I took over the family business in December 2017 with the legacy of my aunt Inge’s warmth and openness vis-à-vis our guests deeply inspiring me. Continuing on with the family tradition, our guests here at Pension Schneider receive heartfelt warmth, kindness and hospitality. We have fun in our business and are looking forward to meeting you and welcoming you in true Schneider fashion on your next visit!

With warm greetings from Lech,
Carola Muxel and family
