On December 13, 2025, Gottwald was allowed to focus on something other than cables, plans and tools. Screwdrivers were set aside for an evening, helmets were exchanged for festive hairstyles and measuring instruments were replaced by mulled wine heifers. Luberegg Castle – a worthy framework to look back together on 2025.
Already on arrival there was a noticeable Christmas mood in the air. 260 colleagues, pensioners and guests of honour came together with mulled wine, Maroni and Christmas music of the brass band Melk and used the opportunity for conversations, reunion and a first toast to the evening.
The official part started with the speeches of Jürgen, Bernd and Peter Gottwald With a successful mix of a look back on the past year, an outlook on what is to come and personal words, it quickly became clear that the people behind the figures and projects are above all the people.

Apprentices, anniversaries and special moments
Our apprentices once again proved that commitment and achievement at Gottwald are important: 23 excellent and 15 good vocational school successes were honored as well as several successfully completed apprenticeship examinations. A nice proof that the future lies in good hands at Gottwald.
Long-serving employees were also in the spotlight. A total of 30 colleagues were honoured for 10 to 35 years of service. Renate Matejka from the canteen celebrated a very special anniversary: she has been part of the company for an impressive 35 years – an occasion marked with particularly personal words.
Cuisine, Conversations and Good Mood
The Pichler family from the Wachau provided the physical well-being with a festive menu that rounded off the evening culinary. Then people laughed, chatted and photographed – whether in the photo box, at the bar or in social circles with music.
The Christmas party 2025 once again showed what defines us: cohesion, appreciation and the celebration of successes together.
With this in mind, we wish you a Merry Christmas and an energetic year 2026! ⚡🎄
