CULTURAL HERITAGE

Rascard renovation

Italia | Italy | Cervinia


The Rascard is a traditional alpine hut used for storing grain after harvest. The Hermitage Hotel boasts two Rascards, both recognized as valuable historical documents: one dating back to 1862, located in the immediate vicinity of the hotel, and the other from the 16th century, near the organic vegetable garden, about 1 km away.

The 1862 Rascard has been expertly restored, retaining its old-world charm, and furnished with period furniture and local crafts that enhance its authenticity. The second Rascard, dating back to the 16th century, is being renovated, with the goal of preserving and handing down these historic structures, which were once essential to prevent moisture and protect grain from rodents. A project that combines respect for tradition and a commitment to the enhancement of local historical heritage.

Hotel Hermitage Relais & Châteaux is located in Breuil-Cervinia, one of Italy's most prestigious ski resorts, at the foot of the majestic Matterhorn Mountain. The property, an authentic alpine chalet, is built entirely of wood and stone, respecting the traditional mountain style. Surrounded by majestic larch trees, the hotel offers the intimate and welcoming atmosphere of high-altitude lodges, enhanced by the warm and attentive management of the Neyroz family, which makes it a unique place.

The 28 rooms and 11 suites, each different in type, are a tribute to local craftsmanship, furnished with handmade wooden furniture and embellished with period fabrics and decorations. Many offer spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. For families or groups of friends, the hotel offers a convenient system of connecting rooms, combining comfort and privacy, ideal for alternating days on the slopes with moments of pure relaxation.

The spa features an indoor pool, sauna, Turkish bath and provides a wide range of customizable wellness treatments.

Rounding out the offer is the restaurant “La Chandelle,” whose gastronomic offerings are the perfect blend of tradition and contemporaneity, bringing to life refined dishes with genuine flavors, which have earned it prestigious awards.

In order to reduce its environmental impact, the hotel has introduced good practices in its management regarding energy consumption, water conservation, the use of biodegradable products and the optimization of separate waste collection.
