Semmering, Österreich - On March 20, 2025, the spectacular auction of the oldest golf course in Austria, located on the picturesque Semmering. Christian Zeller, owner of the Südbahnhotel, secured the last 25 percent of the shares at this auction after the previous owners could not agree. In a gripping bid round, Zeller acquired the area for a remarkable 5 million euros and thus reintrodies the historic golf course into its portfolio, such as MeinDägkurz reported in detail.

The auction took place in the Neunkirchen district court and was not only a financial act, but also a historical act. The purchase not only means a return of the golf course to the lap of the Südbahnhotel, but also a tribute to the long tradition of golf in Austria. It remains to be seen which plans Zeller and his team are now pursuing to further develop the historic golf course.
