Mundl Sackbauer has already visited it and singer Edmund was also very close to it. To whom? The lighthouse in Podersdorf am See! 

The landmark of Podersdorf has only existed since 1997. Before that there was... Nothing. Just a long footbridge. In 1994, landscape architect Sepp Kratochwill was commissioned to draw up a master plan for Podersdorf. He was the one who came up with the idea of a lighthouse.

 "Initially there were concerns about the appearance and necessity of such a structure, but in the end the plan was approved," recalls contemporary witness Walter Gisch.

Fortunately! Because the lighthouse, which was erected in 1997, still shows sailors and surfers the way and is an indispensable tourist attraction. Singer Edmund created a monument to it in his video "Jesolo", there are dozens of marriage proposals here every year and it is an important protagonist in thousands of selfies.

Vote, vote, vote! 
Now he has also been chosen to represent Burgenland in "9 Squares, 9 Treasures". Reason enough for Rene Lentsch and Markus Pfeffer from Podersdorf Tourismus to launch an appeal: "We ask all Podersdorf lovers and all Burgenlanders in general to vote for us on the national holiday! Let's finally let Burgenland win," they ask. By the way: Public viewing will take place at Gasthof Kummer. It starts at 7 pm and there will also be a keg of free beer.
