Duck evenings

The duck evenings are named after a regular discussion in the Hotel Zur Goldenen Ente in Riemergasse 4 (1st district) in Vienna .

Karl Lueger prepared the 2nd Austrian Catholic Day (1889) with Karl von Vogelsang , Prince Aloys von Liechtenstein and Franz Martin Schindler . From this working group a discussion group for social reformers arose, which met regularly at the Hotel Zur Goldenen Ente . From this, the term duck evenings developed as a study group of Catholic social reformers . From these conversations, FM Schindler wrote the program of the Christian Social Movement .
