Village inns have become rare and many innkeepers are closing their inns forever. New ideas are needed to combat host extinction. A young Weinviertler recently had one: where children used to play and romp, culinary delicacies are now served.
23 years ago, the last inn in a small town in the Weinviertel (Lower Austria) was closed – a fate that the town shares with many others: the main social meeting point in village life was history. However, a young restaurateur had the courage to take on new projects – in the spirit of rural revitalization: the graduate of the tourism school converted the kindergarten he once attended into a stylish top restaurant.
