Where Roman Fadenhofer always spent together with 50 cows with 50 cows, now only debris and ash. Because the Adambauer Hut was burned down with the Naturereunde Neubergerhütte. Despite everything, De Boer does not think about giving up.
Roman Fadenhofer reached the news over the phone last Sunday: a friend of the fire brigade informed him that the Adambauer Hut was on fire. “I knew immediately that things can’t go well – it takes way too long for the emergency services to be at the top,” says the Styrian. On the bottom of the federal forest, right next to the Naturfreunde Neubergerhütte, his family had a hut and stable since 1863 – The building was only renovated in 2020.
“It was almost like a second home,” says De Boer at the court in Krieglach. He drove 40 to 50 cows on the Alpine Pasture every summer, often he slept at the top, was there with dozens of births of calves. “My daughter also had her own bed and playroom.” All this was assessed on the floor in the fire. The only happiness: neither man nor animal were injured.
The upcoming Alpine Summer has run for him and his cows. “I expect that the reconstruction will cost at least 200,000 euros,” says Fadenhofer, “we have invested just as much.” Bauholz can best be beaten in the winter – he first wants to start with the concrete foundation. A call for donations has started for the Neubergerhütte, but the farmer is also far from giving up: “So many people called me – countless friends will support me.”
