Hubertus History

The Hubertus in a short time-lapse

The Gasser family was initially active in the trading business and was known in the region as a repairer of commercial vehicles of the Iveco brand. Many decades ago, the grandfather Franz Gasser already understood that it is useful to place the business on several pillars. Part of this is also the Hubertus of today. A lot has happened over the years.
The history of the Hubertus is summarised here in a short time-lapse.

Snow-covered Hotel Hubertus in the mountains

1968

Franz Gasser acquires the house Höhenrain in Geiselsberg.

The guesthouse was first managed by Wolfgang Schnarf. Then for 3 years by Christoph Peer, who later opened his own hotel in Mitterolang. Afterwards, the guesthouse was leased to Othmar Feichter for 10 years and finally to Therese Jud for another 5 years.
