Do you know what egg “scheiben” is? Or are you familiar with a beggar‘s window? Do you know the background of the term „Red Rooster“? Many other regional specialties can certainly be discovered in the new Aspach Topotheque, which was presented to the public on Saturday, November 15, 2025, at the Gasthaus Danzer. Around 220 visitors attended the successful event, which was organized by the Topotheque team together with the municipality of Aspach.
Mayor Georg Gattringer expressed his particular gratitude to Jakob Mersch and Roland Bergmann, the local historians from Hochburg-Ach, for their invaluable support in setting up the Topotheque. Throughout the evening, several videos were shown, highlighting the strong connection the local population has to their homeland. The juxtaposition of past and present photographs, which impressively illustrated Aspach‘s development, generated particular interest. Currently, more than 700 documents are already available in the Topotheque – but this is just the beginning of the digital collection.
