The Mair im Korn farmhouse, which is situated below
the old church of Algund near the spa town of Meran,
has a long history.
The estate with its vineyards and cornfields
was first mentioned in a document on 1 December 1233. “Corn de
Algunda”, the name of the estate then
owned by “Cunradus villicus im Corn”, dates back to the
distant year of 1351.
In 1749 a charming baroque chapel dedicated to
Saint John of Nepomuk was donated to the farm by Franz Alexander von
Egen, the then proprietor. Mass may be celebrated publicly at the chapel
by virtue of papal authorization.

In 1984 the property, which then belonged to the
Anton Martin family, became an entailed estate.
Anton Martin and his wife passed the estate on
to their daughter Barbara, who now manages the
farm with her husband Thomas Clementi and
their children Sophie and Aaron. |
