The foundation stone for the Kaiserspan was laid on August 28, 1851 with the clear-cutting of the forest. Thus, the construction of the Kaiserspan estate could begin. Five hectares of forest remained and ten hectares were converted into agricultural land.  The residential building with the restaurant was built in 1900.

The trademark of the estate is the vineyard cottage. It was built in 1920 especially for the vineyard of that time. It is the only one of its kind in the canton of Lucerne, with a breathtaking view of the mountains and lakes. For a long time, the Kaiserspan was the only vineyard in the canton of Lucerne. The cultivation of the vineyard was maintained until 1957. In 1990, after a long break, viticulture was restarted on the Sonnenhügel in the Kaiserspan.

After several stages of replanting (1998/'2000/'08/'12/'14/'15/'17/'18), our vineyard now covers an area of 3.5 hectares.
