The anniversary guests are from Hungary: It was a huge surprise for Andrea Szaller and her family from Zalaegerszeg when they were welcomed in the lobby with a certificate, a bouquet of flowers, a basket of regional delicacies, and admission vouchers. Last year, which was a record year with over 237,000 visitors, the 100,000th guest of the season was welcomed on June 24, 2019. In what is often referred to as the “Corona year,” this milestone was reached just three days later.

The birth of the lion cubs sparked a surge in visitors during the winter season. By the end of February 2020, more than 35,000 people had visited the East Styrian attraction. “During the lockdown, we focused intensively on brand promotion across all segments, with a particular emphasis on online marketing,” says Tierwelt Director Doris Wolkner-Steinberger, pleased with the successful measures implemented in connection with the smooth reopening.

This positive interim report gives us reason to look forward to the summer vacation with optimism, especially as more tourists come to the region to spend their vacations and a trip to Herberstein is a must. The booking situation in the Apfelland-Stubenberg See area looks promising.
