Fisch Krieg reopens – at least for a short time

The vacant Fisch Krieg on Salzburg's Ferdinand-Hanusch-Platz is opening again - as part of the "eat&meet" culinary festival. From Thursday, the building will be a meeting zone for art and culinary delights for three days. According to the motto: "Essthetics". 

Street art artists and exciting restaurants will come together in the Fisch Krieg to create a unique experience. From 11 a.m. on Thursday, vegetarian street food will be sold for the symbolic price of one euro.  

The future of Fisch Krieg is being determined
On Thursday afternoon, the City of Salzburg's Building and Housing Committee will decide on the permanent allocation of the Fisch Krieg. The family business Kofookoo Holding GmbH is to take over the business. "The new operator wants to sell affordable, healthy fish, Austrian freshwater fish and fish from sustainable fishing," says Deputy Mayor Kay-Michael Dankl.

And: "There is also the idea of offering people on low incomes their own fish soup for everyone." The new tenant will invest half a million euros in renovating the building.
