A Viennese Institution Celebrates International Women's Day: The Landtmann Becomes the "City Woman"
The large illuminated sign is hard to miss: Instead of Landtmann, "Stadtfrau" smiles down from the well-known building in Vienna. At the grand unveiling with the managing directors Anita and Irmgard Querfeld, Karoline Klezl, and Andrea Winkler, as well as the subsequent networking event, attendees included Section Chief Ulrike Rauch-Keschmann, Tourism Division Manager Silvia Fleischhacker, Restaurateur Gabriele Huth, and Head Chef Parvin Razavi to kick off the action week under the motto "Stadtfrau".
Reserved for Women Only: Breast Cancer Lecture at Café Landtmann
On International Women's Day (March 8th), the Grand Hall and the Ladies' Salon of the coffeehouse are exclusively reserved for women from nine to eleven o'clock, offering space for an exciting lecture on early breast cancer detection. This will be delivered by the Managing Director of the Austrian Cancer Aid, Doris Kiefhaber. Additionally, Café Landtmann supports the Pink Ribbon campaign of the Austrian Cancer Aid by donating 1 Euro to the Austrian Cancer Aid for every coffee sold on March 8th. Insights on women's health from Prof. Rhoia Neidenbach were also announced in advance. But it's not just about intellectual nourishment: As always, Café Landtmann is, of course, a place for breakfast, enjoyment, and conversation on this day as well.
"Stadtfrau" Action Week as a Starting Point for Further Events in Vienna
Following the unveiling on March 3rd, a networking event for women from Vienna's gastronomy and tourism sectors took place, focusing on the importance of equality and women's empowerment. "With the opening of 'Café Stadtfrau', we want to make a strong statement and put women not only symbolically but also concretely at the center. Our coffeehouse has always been a place of exchange and inspiration – with this initiative, we want to make the role and achievements of women in gastronomy visible and encourage women to empower and network with each other," says Irmgard Querfeld, Managing Director of Querfeld Enterprises. "But this was just the beginning – further networking meetings for women are already being planned."
