The Fohlenhof (foal farm) in Ebbs is considered the centre of international Haflinger breeding. Over the years, an extensive stud farm with stables, paddocks, riding hall, large arena and museum has grown up around a castle estate. Two new structures were placed in this heterogeneous conglomeration of buildings, forming a new centre with attractive outdoor spaces and giving the stud farm a contemporary identity.

Hotel Sattlerwirt is a classic "Tyrolean Hotel” with a pitched roof, balconies and additions built over the years. In contrast to the old stock left unchanged, Madritsch Pfurtscheller conceived a side wing which is very simple and clear in its use of forms. It features a wellness area in the basement, a newly structured entrance area, foyer, hall with a bar and seminar rooms on the ground floor, as well as two stories of rooms.
