A post station on the Achensee was already written down around 1500, and since 1918 four generations of the Reiter family have held it. What began as an inn at Obere Dorfstraße 382 is now an adults-only house. Karl and Karin Reiter were among the first Tyrolean hoteliers to sell a wellness holiday, and since 2004 their son Karl C. Reiter and Marianna Reiter have kept the farm, the Lipizzaner stud, and the old name of the post.

History
The postal station on the Achensee is first mentioned around 1500. Since 1918 the Reiter family has run it, now in the fourth generation. An inn became a hotel and, step by step, the present five-star wellness house. The name Posthotel Achenkirch dates from 1982. Karl and Karin Reiter added a bath complex, a treatment department, and a beauty farm when wellness weeks were still rare in Tyrol, and they built the farm and the Lipizzaner stud. Since 2004 Karl C. Reiter and Marianna Reiter have managed the house. The family also tells of Emperor Franz Joseph stopping at the post inn on 14 August 1881.
The setting
Obere Dorfstraße 382, 6215 Achenkirch, Tyrol, on the Achensee. The old post sat where travelers on the lake already expected a bed, and the village church is the other landmark in a small place.
