Sepp Tiefenbacher

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sepp Tiefenbacher (born February 4, 1925 in Gutenstein in Lower Austria; † August 1, 2009 in Wiener Neustadt ) was an Austrian forest worker, innkeeper and writer.

Life

Josef Tiefenbacher grew up in the Holzknechtsiedlung Steinapiesting in Gutenstein, where his parents Johann and Leopoldine Tiefenbacher ran a farm and an inn. As a boy he looked after the cows on forest pastures. He attended an agricultural college for a year. He did military service with the mountain troops and after four years returned from the war with a hearing loss and a blind eye. He worked as a forest worker and passed the forest worker examination in 1951 and was chairman of the works council of the Gutenstein forest administration . Then he ventured a nine-month work stay in Sweden. Then he went into commercial wage labor with one of the first tractors in the area, a 15-series Steyr , where he mowed, plowed, cut firewood, stripped wood and offered transports. In 1958 he married Gertrud Salmannshofer and took over the family business. In 1961 he finished his service as a forest worker and in 1970 he stopped commercial wage labor. From 1975 to 1985, Sepp Tiefenbacher was, along with mayor Ernst Hochenbichler, executive councilor of the market town of Gutenstein. After his daughter Irmgard took over the inn, he found time to write.
