The app "Hügel"

Experience history digitally

Inside the building and as they make their way through the park grounds, visitors get never-before-seen insights into the economic and historical background of the site thanks to the app Hügel.

Augmented reality, 3D elements, and 360-degree panoramas bring the past to life and allow visitors to experience the transformation of Villa Hügel: With the free app, you can take virtual peeks behind the closed doors of the imperial bathroom and the swimming pool and discover new places. The app offers exciting tours tailored to different interests: for explorers, the curious, those in a hurry, and families.

You can also conveniently tour Villa Hügel from home using the “For Home” tour.

The app is free and available for download under the name “Hügel” in the Apple or Google Play Store. In addition, free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms of Villa Hügel as well as in select outdoor areas.
