Institutes field trip 2014

Punctually at 8:45 a.m. we set off with the bus, guided with a steady hand by our chauffeur Valentin, in the direction of Eisenstadt to the Isosport company. The company is a world leader in the development and manufacture of plastic composite materials for the ski and snowboard industry. The company is also successful in the development and production of (tailor-made) plastic tennis strings. Tennis strings can be manufactured with similar playing characteristics as natural gut strings.

After a short company presentation, we were shown through the production halls in a good mood.

In the process, many a display piece changed hands.

After the company tour at Isosport, we fortified ourselves with sausage and cheese sandwiches for the visit to Forchtenstein Castle.

Unfazed by the crocodile, which was supposed to deter uninvited guests, we were guided through the historic castle. In stimulating discussions, both historical competence and strong nerves were demanded of the staff.

Treasure chamber in Forchtenstein Castle

The secret treasury with well-preserved, partly exotic exhibits...

Ancestral gallery in Forchenstein Castle

Apparently it wasn't possible without a moustache, even at that time...

The overview and order in the document depot are reminiscent of some office at Institute E308...

Great importance was attached to sufficient work space in the kitchen…

Apparently it shouldn't fail because of the armament. It is therefore not surprising that the castle was besieged several times but never taken.

From the castle wall, a beautiful panorama finally opened up with a view all the way to Lake Neusiedl.

Cooled off from the tour through the cold walls, we made our way to the Heurigen, where, despite a few bird attacks from above, a cozy end was celebrated.
