Schloss Wylihof

Where the World Federation of Cosmetics is at home, you learn your craft — between the Aare and the Jura, a few minutes from Solothurn.

The place

One estate, one name: Wylihof

Schloss Wylihof lies on the edge of Luterbach in the canton of Solothurn. Around the estate stretch a park, gardens and more than a hundred hectares of golf course — castle, villa and Blumensteinhaus all bear the same name.

This is the seat of CIFA, the World Federation of Cosmetics. For your training this means: you learn in surroundings that give you calm and concentration — and return home with your certificate from the association.

CIFA — World Federation of Cosmetics

Your host: the World Federation of Cosmetics

CIFA (Confédération Internationale de la Formation et de l'Esthétique) has its seat at Schloss Wylihof. The German Federal Association of Cosmetic and Foot Care Businesses is a member — and the Fußpflegeschule Berlin is its academy. The elite programme thus combines the association’s training with the place where international cosmetics is at home.
