About Gasthof Post Lech
- Relais & Châteaux member since 1976; the Moosbrugger family has owned the inn since 24 April 1937.
- A building on the site dates to about 1650; the house became an imperial-royal postal station on 31 May 1871, which is why it is still called Post.
- Kristl Moosbrugger was named Austria's first woman Hotelier of the Year in 1990; her son Florian later won the same title.
- The 2010 wing added a two-level spa: indoor children's pool with a slide below, adults' pool above.
- In 1965 the Post built Lech's first indoor swimming pool, years before the village became an international ski resort.
