Arlberg Weinberg
Welcome to the Hotel Post Lech Arlberg! We are delighted to inform you about a very special event taking place in the picturesque setting of Lech at the Arlberg: the ARLBERG WEINBERG Symposium. From 9 to 12 December 2024, our beautiful village will be transformed into a paradise for wine lovers and connoisseurs.
The centrally organised Arlberg Weinberg Symposium was launched in the 2022/23 season to bring the world of wine to Lech. This year, the Symposium will take place at the Lechwelten for the first time, providing a platform for specialist events that focus on specific key topics. We look forward to welcoming numerous leading figures from the wine industry, including journalists, critics, experts and winemakers.
The Symposium events are open to everyone this year! This means that you have the opportunity to take part in exciting, specialised lectures in the morning, which are offered for only EUR 60 per person. In the afternoon, we invite you to moderated tastings where you can sample exquisite wines - the price for this is EUR 120.
