Your stay begins today in the same place where watches were once manufactured.
In a location where watches were crafted for 130 years, you can now stay in one of 51 rooms right in the heart of St. Georgen in the Black Forest. Classy, but not pretentious.
Since 2018, the former Tobias Bäuerle factory has turned into a hotel. The architecture still shows traces of its past: clean lines, oak wood, and plenty of light. Whether you’re on a business trip or a short getaway—you’ll stay in a central location, dine at FeinWERK, and end the day on the rooftop terrace with a view of the Black Forest.

What sets FederWERK from other hotels in the Black Forest
Each of the 51 rooms is dedicated to a real person, a company, or a product from St. Georgen’s industrial history—from the first watchmaker with a wooden-wheel clock to XR learning software. Together, they form a timeline spanning more than 300 years.
This isn’t a themepark hotel. The building really was a factory, the names are real, and the stories come from the town itself. If you’re interested, you can learn more about them. If you just want a good night’s sleep, you won’t even notice.

Your big advantage
With your check-in at the Hotel FederWERK, you’ll receive the Black Forest Guest Card (Kurkarte). It will accompany you throughout your stay and offers numerous discounts on attractions and recreational activities in the region.
Especially convenient: Your guest card featuring the KONUS symbol serves as your free pass for public transportation in the Black Forest. Upon payment of the standard visitor’s tax, you can use buses and trains in the participating KONUS area free of charge—for the duration of your entire stay and as often as you’d like.
For example, from the nearby Schwarzes Tor stop, you can reach Triberg, Villingen, or the St. Georgen train station, allowing you to plan your excursions through the Black Forest with ease using public transportation.
This way, you can simply leave your car behind—and explore St. Georgen and the Black Forest flexibly, hassle-free, and without additional travel costs using public transportation.
