Urgently Seeking Successor: Uncertain Times for the Neuwaldegger Bath in Vienna-Hernals

The Neuwaldegger Bath has played an important role in the community for decades. The operator, Gabi Dolezel, announced in the summer at the request of ORF Vienna that she has put the bath on hold due to personal reasons. The sole responsibility for the operation had become too much for her.

Current Situation and Search for a Successor

Last season, the bath remained closed. The operator is now actively searching for a suitable successor who would like to acquire the superstructure. This concerns the buildings on the property, which were built by the family, including the cabin area, the gastronomy, and a sauna.

Prospects for Reopening

The hope for a reopening in 2026 is realistically low. The property, including a two-hectare park, belongs to the St. Peter's Abbey with an estate management in Dornbach. According to their information, there are many interested parties for the bath, but they do not expect a reopening before 2026, as the extent of the necessary work is currently unclear. The estate management expressed the desire to find a new operator this year.
