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.
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.
Teaching in historic rooms
Stucco ceilings, French windows to the veranda, a view of the park — and modern treatment stations.
Arrive, stay, learn — in one place
During the training you stay right on campus. No commuting, no hotel search, no long ways: your room is ready when you arrive, and your meals are organised.

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 academy trains on its behalf. Training at the castle thus combines the association’s standards with the place where international cosmetics is at home.

All courses on the campus are listed with date, free places and price in the course list. We are happy to answer questions about your days at the castle in person.
