Rescue for hotel

Eat cake and fight against the decay!

The Facebook group "Das Hotel Wörthersee - Nostalgiealbum" was founded two years ago to raise awareness of the hotel's decay. Today, Monday, Konditorei Korbelius is launching a fundraising campaign to once again draw attention to the long-standing problem.

The Hotel Wörthersee, a jewel of the Wilhelminian era that characterizes the image of the East Bay, is close to falling into disrepair. As the current owner has neglected the building for the past six years, Sabine Biedermann and Barbara Hofer opened a Facebook group about the vacant hotel two years ago. Last year, they founded their association called "Verein zur Rettung des Hotels".

Who else will help save it?
To ensure that the listed building does not fall victim to lovelessness, every effort is being made in cooperation with the Federal Monuments Office to stop the decay. The aim would be to cooperate with the Ministry of Culture and the City of Klagenfurt. 

In order to support the association financially, the Korbelius confectionery opened a fundraising campaign. Small brick-shaped cakes were created, with every "brick" eaten contributing one euro to the association. Under the motto "a brick carries history", this fundraising campaign is running from this afternoon.
