About us

History meets the future here

ClassicX Landhaus & Hotel is a location where history becomes tangible. It dates back to 1124 when the mill was first mentioned in documents (see History).

Today history meets the future in our establishment because we have maintained the good, traditional things and have enriched them with modern technology and new stories. This is because our establishment not only offers comfortable overnight accommodation, but is also the home of events and conferences – in the building itself as well as in the Nahetal-Arena right next-door.

Combine something enjoyable with something useful and plan your next company event in ClassicX Landhaus. We would be delighted to advise you in person about the options for your event with us and will be actively by your side during the planning.

We are the ideal location for the following events:
• Seminars/conferences up to 100 people
• Management conferences/workshops
• Information events (e.g. product presentation, press conferences)
• Company anniversaries
