It is already a small tradition that the students of the Swiss School of Rome with Austrian roots are invited to a small reception at the Cultural Institute and the Austrian Historical Institute to celebrate the Austrian national holiday together. This year too, therefore, the primary school has prepared for this wonderful moment with small study units on Austria. We cooked "Topfengolatschen" and "Kaiserschmarrn", learned the national anthem and met the Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser.
We thank the Univ. Dr. Gottsmann of the Austrian Historical Institute and Dr. Teresa Indjein, director of the Austrian Cultural Institute, for the warm and successful welcome at the reception for the Austrian national day.
