Rupertihaus
In 1892, not far from here, the "Ruperti
Tunnel“ was started, and in the process, a
large dormitory for the workforce, as well
as some workshops, were built here. In
1931, the mining operations in Mühlbach
went bankrupt, leading to the sale of all
properties. In 1935, the new owner, DAV
Reichberg, opened the "Rupertihaus“
with 40 beds, a spacious dormitory, dining
rooms, showers, and baths, with electric
lighting and running hot and cold water.
From 1952, this place became the home of
our former world champion in ski jumping: Sepp "Buwi“ Bradl, and his family.
Operating as a guesthouse and hotel,
the Rupertihaus hosted the best ski
jumpers of its time, many celebrities, and
numerous tourist guests over the decades.
It served as accommodation and a starting
point for training in the Riedingtal
training center for the many ski jumping
nations that came here to Mitterberg for
training camps. After Sepp Bradl‘s death
in 1982, the Rupertihaus was sold, and on
December 7, 1990, it was destroyed by fire,
burning down to its foundations.
