How it all started

Authentic ladin origins

Hotel Ladinia began as a farmhouse and home of the Fistill family, guardians of Ladin tradition and the history of La Villa, deeply rooted in rural life and the valley’s cultural identity.

From farmhouse to inn

In 1892, the house was transformed into one of La Villa’s first inns, “Gasthaus Ladinien,” also becoming a post office and a central meeting point for locals and travelers alike.

Military hospital in World War I

During the Great War, the building was requisitioned and turned into a military hospital, with an operating room on the ground floor and recovery spaces for wounded soldiers outside.
