The building is one of the original farmsteads in the Sölden region.

The Berghof is located on the west side of the valley directly above the Sölden town centre.

In 1588, the Berghof was listed in the records of St. Petersberg Castle as one of the original farmsteads[1] of Sölden.

Since then many other houses have been built around the Berghof, and today this more than 400 year old farmstead serves principally as an alpine lodge with some seasonal agricultural functions.

In September 1939 portions of the film The Vulture Wally from Hans Steinhoff were shot at the Berghof.
