Feldschlösschen Brewery
Beer has been brewed in Switzerland's most popular castle since 1876. Learn the whole story of Feldschlösschen beer here.
The farmer & the brewer.
Theophil Roniger, a brewer from the neighbouring village of Magden, and the wealthy farmer's son Mathias Wüthrich buy an old factory in Rheinfelden. They invest a lot of money in equipment and raw materials and found the "Kollektivgesellschaft Wüthrich & Roniger zum Feldschlösschen".
In the first year, 3,600 hectolitres of beer are produced. Even though the signs do not always point to success, the company grows steadily. In 1889, a direct railway siding is built to Rheinfelden station. The beer can now be transported all over Switzerland by train.
Architecture & beer at its best.
The architectural beauty of the picturesque Aargau industrial monument attracts many visitors. Especially at night, the castle illumination offers a unique atmosphere.
Feldschlösschen has stood for brewing culture since 1876 and is today the leading brewery as well as the largest beverage distributor in Switzerland.
