"Great Austrian"
Bierlein honored with her own room in the Chancellery
A room in the Chancellery has been dedicated to the late former Federal Chancellor and Supreme Court judge Brigitte Bierlein. Her former office has been renamed the "Bierlein Room" by the current head of government Karl Nehammer.
Austria's first female chancellor died on June 3 of this year - exactly the same day on which she was sworn in with her transitional government five years ago. Her successor Nehammer also wanted to erect a monument to the "great Austrian" in the Federal Chancellery. The room in which she held office as head of government from 3 June 2019 to 7 January 2020 is now named after her.
For Nehammer, the "Bierlein Room" is intended to be a "place of recognition, deep respect and remembrance" for the popular politician who led the country in times of crisis.
The then President of the Constitutional Court moved to the Chancellery in 2019 as head of an expert government when nothing was going well politically in the country as a result of the Ibiza scandal
