history
In 2001, Rosenberger Lipno Line sro was bought by the Upper Austrian entrepreneur Lukas Dorn-Fussenegger, son of the writer Gertrud Fussenegger . At that time the company had two historic ships for 80 people each: the “Vltava” and the “Lipno”. In the year of the takeover, Rosenberger Lipno Line had around 12,000 passengers. By 2011 the number of passengers had increased to 32,000. Since the capacity of the ships was no longer sufficient, a ship was bought in Germany in 2012: the “Marksburg”, which was later renamed “Adalbert Stifter” and was transported over the Mühlviertel to Lipno in a three-day journey. In 2016 the company had 52,000 passengers.
