Greetings from our fishery!

Everything is possible. Nothing is mandatory. At the nature resort at Fischergut. Plenty of space on over 70,000 square meters. A nature experience is guaranteed. In summer and winter.

A farm has always combined work and life under one roof, working with land, soil and animals.

For many families and generations, the FiSCHERGUT estate also meant home and livelihood. Around 10 years ago, we consciously chose to live in the countryside together and redefined agriculture for ourselves in the age of digitalization.We are therefore trying to keep them alive in contemporary forms of living and business. Today's home office gives us the opportunity to work from home in our "side jobs".

Our farm, with 70,000 square meters of green space and around 30,000 square meters of forest, was already geared towards grassland farming with sheep breeding by our parents, and we are running it in the second generation.

A farm holiday was a logical step for us, completing our life in the countryside. As newcomers to the industry, we know what holidaymakers expect and look forward to your visit.

As farmers, we work according to weather conditions, are committed to sustainable farming and meat production, and are proud of our certifications. As a top-quality product, we produce premium meat from our organic farm, focusing on slow growth and sustainable production. Our animals are treated with respect and kept in a species-appropriate and environmentally friendly manner. Lamb is among the healthiest types of meat. It boasts top scores in valuable nutrients such as essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals – and it is also low in fat. The fatty acids it contains lower blood cholesterol levels and help prevent cardiovascular disease. The high content of conjugated linoleic acid also inhibits cancer.
As business administrators, we are making our farm sustainable for future generations and utilizing existing land and buildings to offer our guests a genuine nature experience with the hallmark of freedom. As entrepreneurs, we are "barons and ladies" of our time and utilize all the opportunities the internet offers (online sales, automation, building technology, process design, telephone and video conferencing, etc.) to operate throughout Europe.And even though it's our workplace and the 24 hours in a day are usually not enough – for you it should be a place to relax and enjoy nature.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy life. Immerse yourself in nature and escape the daily grind with us in the countryside. Enjoy our idyllic rural life, fresh air, culture, and fresh, healthy food.

Welcome to our rural area.

Intro. HOW it came about…

Like something out of a (good) fairy tale. In 2002, Martin was invited to a birthday party at his fellow student Max's place in Radau/St. Wolfgang. Max's neighbor Andrea was also there. It was love at first sight. Everything else could have come straight out of a Hollywood movie.

Andrea moved from Innsbruck, where she studied medicine, to Vienna, where we moved into our first small attic apartment together in the 7th district. We have been married since 2009 and moved to Andrea's hometown of St. Wolfgang a year later. Our family grew with the addition of Anna Theresia in 2012, Jonathan Benedikt in 2014, Emma Christina in 2016, and Julia Sophia in 2018.

With the birth of our first daughter in 2012, we took over the active farm FiSCHERGUT (a grassland farm with Texel sheep breeding) and decided to continue running it together. To make the farm economically viable and sustainable for future generations, the first renovations began in 2014 with the vision of transforming the farm into a "farm holiday – experiencing and understanding nature".

With 2020, we are starting our first season at the FiSCHERGUT nature resort and are delighted that you have found us.

Andrea & Martin's part-time job

We're often asked what our actual job is. Well, we can't really answer that. We love the variety and simply try to do everything as well as we can. Sometimes it works better, sometimes worse. Our fundamental belief and motto is: "Do what you can, with what you have, where you are," and our experience shows us that this is usually enough. Of course, things are bumpy at the beginning. When we start something new, it takes some time until the processes are running smoothly, but then it usually works well.


Andrea is a passionate hostess, farmer, and doctor. As a specialist in family and general medicine with numerous additional qualifications, she founded the Wolfgangsee Health Center, where she now works as a doctor. With a lot of heart, down-to-earth nature and a feel for people, she and her family shape life at the Fischergut estate.


Martin is an entrepreneur, investment manager, and advisory board member – and he helps out at FiSCHERGUT wherever needed. He founded his first company back in 2003. Today, his portfolio includes UBVA Group several specialized companies such as (among others) CASHFINDER, 5th Mind, MOTH shop,Vitalogic, MRD Physicom...) with around 20 employees in 5 countries – and now even more AI agents ;-). What he finds particularly exciting: interesting people, good conversations, and companies with potential. Anyone interested in exchanging ideas – just get in touch.


Thomas More (1477-1535, statesman and humanist) once said: "Tradition is not the preservation of ashes, but the passing on of the flame!" Following this motto, we strive to keep alive the spirit and diligence of our families as simple, practical people, craftsmen, tradespeople, innovative inventors, and industrialists in both traditional and contemporary ways of life and business.

1416-1710 Curia Rotau

The FiSCHERGUT or Mayrhof (Mayrhof/ Meierhof/ Meierei, Meyerhof, from Latin maiores villae, also Sedelhof or Fronhof) is a farmstead or building in which, in its history, the administrator (the Meier) of a noble or ecclesiastical estate once lived.

Our farm was first documented in 1416 in the Urbar, the inventory of goods belonging to Mondsee Abbey, under the name Curia Rotau (Radau = Rotau = cleared meadow). That was more than 600 years ago. It already existed then and was probably founded considerably earlier.

It was purchased in 1982 by our father-in-law/father-in-law Dr. Otto Czerweny Edler von Arland and has been in the family ever since.

Family history

"Free the eye, clear the will, complete the deed."

Franz Czerweny von Arland, industrialist and entrepreneur

The Czerweny family were major industrialists in the match industry and originally came from the southeastern Bohemian town of Trautenau in what is now the Czech Republic. Franz Czerweny (born March 26, 1848, died April 13, 1921), the son-in-law of Florian Pojatzi (born January 15, 1830; died August 17, 1917), the founder of the match empire, was appointed Imperial and Royal Commercial Councilor in 1907 and awarded the Officer's Cross of the Order of Franz Joseph in 1911 in recognition of his outstanding achievements. For his services, he was knighted by Emperor Charles I and awarded the title "Edler von Arland" (Nobleman of Arland). The name Arland refers to the towns of Arnfels and Landsberg (Deutschlandsberg). The family motto is: "Free the eye, clear the will, all the deed."

The Czerweny von Arland family achieved worldwide fame through the two siblings Viktor Franz Florian (born 1877; died 1956) and Robert Franz Anton (born 1878; died 1962) in 1898 with the development of the first match-making machine, the "Czerweny," which was given a place of honor in the Vienna Technical Museum and can still be viewed today. This epoch-making Czerweny machine produced one million matches per hour. From 1908 onward, the patented machine was mass-produced and remains in use today.

Today, after more than 185 years of family history characterized by brilliant rises and times of economic weakness, but always by inventions and innovations, the current descendants of the Robert line, Dr. Andrea von Arland and Ing. Dr. Martin von Arland, live with their families in St. Wolfgang and Vienna.

They attempt to recount the history of the CZERWENY EDLE VON ARLAND family assimple, practical peopleto allow innovative inventors and entrepreneurs to continue to thrive in contemporary forms of life and business.

"Fate only bestows the laurels of success upon those who strive for them through relentless work."

Robert Czerweny von Arland, industrialist and entrepreneur
