Le château en bref
The Seehof stands on the shore of Lake Zurich, in Küsnacht, beside the former Krone inn. Around 1650, Colonel Hanspeter Lochmann-Werdmüller, an officer in French service, had a stately manor house built there, with a sumptuous interior: a panelled salon, a painted stove, stucco ceilings and a rare Sala Terrena. Sold in 1790 to Hans Caspar Bleuler, the house housed Zurich's first cantonal teacher-training seminary in 1832–1834, and then, from 1868 to 1872, the poet Conrad Ferdinand Meyer, who wrote Huttens letzte Tage there. Converted into a sanatorium at the beginning of the twentieth century, it was bought by the municipality in 1961, restored and reopened in 1979. It now houses the C. G. Jung Institute.
