 Owners Peter & Madalena SCHLAGER

Gasthaus Zur blauen Donau was opened on 12 April 1931. Years before, the owner Johann Lenz, the Eisgrabner, as the house was called, had run a bottled beer business.

 In the 1950s, the inn was nicknamed the "Dreimäderlhaus" (three-wheeled house) because of the innkeeper's three pretty daughters, which aroused the curiosity of many a young boy and prompted him to stop in. In 1960, daughter Hedwig and her husband Eduard Schlager, who was the first to drive the workers of the Quelle mail-order company to Linz and back on weekdays with his own bus, took over the innkeeping business after his untimely death in 1976. During this time, extensive conversion and renovation work was carried out. Peter Schlager took over the business from his mother in 1995. The inn, located directly on the Nibelungen federal road, is an insider's tip for the many fishing enthusiasts who try their luck at the adjacent ponds of the Donauschlinge. With well-organised musical mornings in the summer months, the innkeeper always succeeds in attracting mainly guests from the community and from neighbouring Haibach ob der Donau. They are treated to good home cooking and a speciality of the house, home-roasted Steckerlfischen. In winter, the aforementioned ponds and the in-house ice rinks are an Eldorado for curling. On fine winter days, up to a hundred curlers can be found here, and of course the Schlager Inn provides them with warm and cold drinks.
