Reading with Birgit Birnbacher

21:00 O'CLOCK

Birgit Birnbacher, the master of ‘unpathetic empathy’ (Judith von Sternburg, Frankfurter Rundschau), succeeds in posing the question of how and from what we want to live in gripping and poetic language.


A single mistake catapults Julia from her job as a nurse back to her old life in the village. Everything seems even worse there: the factory where half the village used to work no longer exists. Her father is in a precarious state, her mother has left him and her sick brother behind after years of sacrifice and has dared to make a new start. When Julia meets Oskar, who is recovering from a heart attack in the village, she is initially envious. Oskar has won a kind of basic income for a year and is making plans. But what can Julia think of for her future?

Hotel Sonnenburg

Sonnenburg is situated in one of the most famous ski resorts of the world, on the sun terrace of the Arlberg mountains, next to the slopes in the traffic-free village Oberlech. In summer it is possible to park your car in front of the hotel. The cable car Lech-Oberlech connects us with the center of Lech. In winter it operates between 07.00 am and 01.00 in the night and in summer from 08.30 am until 06.00 pm.

You have a choice of two categories: the 4-star superior standard that you are already accustomed to in the Sonnenburg's Landhaus, or the added comfort of the Sonnenburg's 5-star Stammhaus. The Landhaus is connected with the Stammhaus by a 90 meter long mirrored hallway, so that you can enjoy the amenities of both buildings easily.


In 1967, the Sonnenburg became the first hotel in Oberlech to be equipped with a pool. And a dip in our large new pool will be even more relaxing, especially with spectacular views of the mountains. The ladies and family spa areas are also being upgraded.
What's more, comfortable sitting areas are being created for our guests in the hotel lobby, the reception is being moved, and a room with wonderful panoramic views will be available for a wide range of different events, including seminars, dinners or small meetings.

Not only the playroom, but also our kindergarten “kid’s world” is very requested and popular.
The first attempts on skies can be made directly in front of the hotel. Ski school Oberlech is located just a snowball’s throw away from the Sonnenburg. After a day full of exercise you will find time and calmness to enjoy our spa area with pool and several sauna possibilities with separate family sauna. Our different restaurants offer various culinary delights.
We also offer professional services and amenities for congress guests to climb mountains of knowledge.
Experience wonderful moments with your family. With people, who are delighted about your stay. At a place, that is revisited by generations.
