Overview

The Bergdoktorhaus in Ellmau, Austria, serves as the primary filming location for the exterior shots of the medical practice in the long-running German television series Der Bergdoktor. Located at the historic Hubenhof farm, the building maintains the traditional Tyrolean architecture recognizable to fans of the show. While the interior scenes of the medical practice are filmed in a studio, the exterior remains a landmark for enthusiasts visiting the Wilder Kaiser region. Visitors can view the building from the designated visitor area. The property is a working farm, meaning access is strictly limited to the exterior viewing area to respect the residents' privacy. It remains a focal point for themed tourism in the Ellmau municipality.
