New escape house in Gföhl: an adventure for the whole family

In GFÖHL, a new attraction for adventurous and those interested in history is created: the escape house. The initiative is driven by Florian Blauensteiner, the operator of the Escape House. On Wednesday, numerous mayors and those responsible gathered to discover the exciting challenges of the new location. The Escape House will open in December 2024 and promises an unforgettable experience in the Kampseen region.

The local leaders, including Mayor Ludmilla Etzenberger and region Kampseen chairman Andreas Pichler, were enthusiastic about this new leisure activities. "Gföhl has a new highlight!" Explained the region Kampseen coordinator Nina Hubaczek, which is also known for the strong cohesion of the communities.

unique experiences

The Escape House refers to the history of the place and promises to captivate the audience with creative puzzles in several rooms and over two floors. Visitors can look forward to an exciting story that was specially developed for the location. Not only the elaborate structure of the escape room, but also the history of the former building, which once served as a tailoring, is integrated into the design.

The challenges are enriched by the combination of local sagas and traditional stories of the Waldviertel. Blauensteiner explains: "It was important to me that our Escape Room is not just a game, but made the roots of the Waldviertel noticeable." This successful combination ensures an experience that goes beyond the usual escape room concept.

By revitalizing the long unused building in Jaaidhofergasse 4, the town center is also revitalized. This will not only strengthen tourism in the region, but also create a variety of leisure opportunities for the local population. The opportunity to solve puzzles promotes team spirit and creativity and could have a positive effect on youth work.

Florian Blauensteiner: The creative head behind the experience

Florian Blauensteiner, the operator of the Escape House, has extensive experience. He has already visited numerous escape rooms and is enthusiastic about innovative puzzle solutions that appear new to his guests. With his background in physics, he has set himself the goal of using fascinating physical phenomena that amaze visitors.

"We use physical tricks, many of which do not know that they exist," says Blauensteiner. In addition, he is an active member of the Top Escape Rooms Project enthusiasts' Choice Award (Terpeca), who determines the best escape rooms worldwide every year.

The support of the community, in particular Mayor Ludmilla Etzenberger and the responsible offices, was crucial for the implementation of the project.
