A s h o r t b i o g r a p h y : 

F r i e d e n s r e i c h H u n d e r t w a s s e r 

On December 15, 1928 one of Austrian most eccentric artists was born – his name was 

Friedrich Stowasser. Later in his life he changed his name into Friedensreich Hundertwasser. 

After his school leaving examination he spent 3 months at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. 

At the age of 21 he started travelling across Europe and visited North Italy, Tuscany, Rome, 

Napels and Sicily. In Florence he met René Brô and followed him to Paris. On these trips he 

collected a lot of ideas and created his own philosophy: A life in harmony with nature. 

In 1949 he changed his name from Stowasser (sto = 100 in slavic languages) into 

Hundertwasser. Later on he called himself Friedensreich Regentag Dunkelbunt 

Hundertwasser. 

Although he was a loner his whole life long he always travelled a lot around the world. On 

these journeys he learned different languages, e.g. english, french, italian as well as a little bit 

japanese, russian, czech and arabic. 

He always carried his painting equipment with him so he was able to paint everywhere and 

every time he wanted to. 

In 1952 and 1953 he had his first exhibitions in Vienna, in the following years in Paris and 

Milano. 1972 he designed the official poster for the XX Summer Olympics in Munich. 

1982 he designed the facade of a factury and one year later was the ground breaking 

ceremony for the “Hundertwasser-Haus” in Vienna. 

In the following years he worked on a lot of architecture projects in Germany, Austria, 

Switzerland, California, Japan and New Zealand. 

Until his death on February 19, 2000, Friedensreich Hundertwasser spent most of his time in 

his adopted home country New Zealand where he was buried on his plot of land, in the Garden 

of the Happy Dead under a tulip tree, in harmony with nature.

P h i l o s o p h y o f F r i e d e n s r e i c h H u n d e r t w a s s e r 

There are no evils in nature. There are only evils of man. 

When man thinks he has to correct nature, it is an irreparable mistake every time. A 

community should not consider it an honour how much spontaneous vegetation it destroys; it 

should rather be a point of honour for every community to protect as much of its natural 

landscape as possible.The brook, the river, the swamp, the riverside wetlands as they are, the 

way God created them, must be sacred and inviolable to us. Correcting a stream only has evil 

effects, which are expensive in the end: the lowering of water tables, the destruction of 

forests, the transformation of large areas into steppes, no regeneration of the water, which 

runs off too fast. The river wetlands can no longer fulfill their sponge-like function: the 

absorption of excess water and slow feedback in dry spells, like a good piggy bank in times of 

emergency. The regulated brook becomes a sewer. Fish die, and there are no fish in the brook 

because they cannot swim through the regulated channel. Floods, with all their devastating 

consequences, all the more after regulation. Because too much water runs off too quickly, 

converging in great quantity without any chance of being absorbed by the earth and the 

vegetation. Only a stream with a high waterline flowing irregularly can produce pure water, 

regulate the water household and conserve the fish and animal populations to the benefit of 

man and his agriculture. Now, almost too late, this age-old adage is being recognised and the 

courses of rivers and streams, which had been straightened in concrete channels, are being 

destroyed in order to restore the previous irregular state. What irony! So why regulate a 

stream if you have to deregulate it afterwards? 

Hundertwasser, May 1990

H i s t o r y o f R o g n e r B a d B l u m a u 

Some people never have an opportunity to change their ways, others have one but fail to 

recognise it; others still both receive and spot it, but are unable to take advantage of it. 

Blumau, a small community in Eastern Styria, almost suffered the same fate or something like 

it. A thermal spring was discovered, no one recognised its value and a lot of money was spent 

to concrete it in. Some years later, the authorities began to have doubts, and a town clerk 

turned to Rogner. The contractor looked into the matter, submitted a preliminary proposal for 

use of the spring, took it to the Styrian Provincial authorities, was given the go-ahead and, at 

considerable expense, opened it up again. What was found was a high-quality 100°C eruptive 

hot spring, the quality of which exceeded all expectations. 

Yet again, Rogner decides to do something extraordinary. He gets in touch with the renowned 

artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser who agrees to design this thermal park. A model is built 

the size of a small dancehall and presented to the provincial government. After miles of red 

tape, the local authorities finally decide to take up this opportunity. Rogner-Bad Blumau is 

built - 150,000 visitors to the building site watch on in amazement - and like so many Rogner 

projects, Blumau too is opened on Robert Rogner’s 56th birthday. 

International media coverage and popular demand to live in the biggest inhabitable work of 

art start to attract people to Blumau from near and far. 

As a “hotel with soul“, Rogner-Bad Blumau puts individual well-being first. Beneath its green 

roofs is a blend of activity and relaxation. In recognition of the ecological man-agement and 

environmentally friendly mode of construction, Rogner-Bad Blumau was awarded the Austrian 

Environmental Mark of Excellence for Tourism Enterprises just a few weeks after being opened. 

There’s something for everyone – families and singles, adults and children, people in search of 

relaxation and others looking for action – a wide range of individual health and wellness 

packages of the holistic medicine insti-tute, alternative therapies, numerous sports and 

animation programmes, the Rogner children’s adventure club and special conference services. 

National and international companies and groups such as General Motors choose Blumau as a 

place to present their products. Why? Because Rogner Bad Blumau is simply out of the 

ordinary. 

P h i l o s o p h y o f R o g n e r B a d B l u m a u 

At Rogner Bad Blumau, as a hotel with soul, well being of every individual has top priority. 

Below its green covered and colourful roofs, its varied shapes and flowing lines activity is 

combined with a relaxed and laid-back feeling.

A r c h i t e c t u r e 

The rolling Styrian hills form a perfect backdrop to the unique Rogner Bad Bumau, one of the 

world’s most architecturally unusual hotels. Designed by famous Austrian artist Friedensreich 

Hundertwasser, the patchwork, rainbow-coloured buildings are complemented by a sleek 

design inside the hotel. 

Rogner Bad Blumau is arranged like a city with various districts. The ring-shaped inside spa is 

the centre, the diverse accommodation, swimming, bathing and restaurant areas branch from 

the centre out into the open landscape. 

T h e h o u s e s 

Stammhaus (Main house) 

The main house has 46 rooms, the hotel reception and the management offices. 

Ziegelhaus (Brick house) 

The facade is designed with original roof-tiles from old Bad Blumau farmhouses. In this way, 

the history of the place has also been incorporated into the building. 

There are 100 rooms in this building. 

Kunsthaus (Art house) 

The facade of this building is based on the Vienna Kunsthaus art gallery, hence its German 

name "Kunsthaus". The art house has 100 rooms. 

Steinhaus (Stone house) 

This house has 47 suites ranging in size from 40 sq.m. to 95 sq.m. offering accommodation to 

approximately 150 guests. The building owes its name to the use of stones for its facade. 

Waldhofhäuser (Forest yard houses) 

Bedroom & living room – high quality & equipped in style with natural wood furniture by 

“Grüne Erde”, a place to read & rest, a fresh water basin, a bath with whirlpool (connected to 

fresh water & thermal water), a bath with shower & toilet, hideaway for 1 to 4 people – 

deliberately without TV. When rented to 3 or 4 pax, the meditation spot is used as a sleeping 

spot with Japanese Tatami-mats & futons. Outdoors access to the main building: 30 metres 

Augenschlitzhäuser (Slit-eye houses) 

These houses with their 13 apartments do indeed have the shape of slitted eyes. Our guests 

find a range of comfortable accommodation units, divided into sleeping and living areas as 

well as a whirlpool tub in the bathroom.

T h e r o o m s 

All rooms, suites and apartments, which have been designed in accordance with the 

philosophy of Friedensreich Hundertwasser, are all equipped with wooden furniture and 

parquet floors, as well as minibar, telephone, satellite TV with integrated radio, room safe and 

hairdryer. 

Room category “Wolkenreich” – for a healthy sleep 

In these rooms, you not only sleep under a canopy but also on special mattresses, which allow 

you to adjust the degree of hardness yourself. Whether you adjust your mattress to hard or 

soft, each comfort level gives your back optimal support, without any uncomfortable pressure 

points. 

The “Wolkenreich” Mattress fulfils every requirement: a cosy bed for luxurylovers,

W a t e r – t h e s o u r c e o f l i f e 

There are three different hot springs at Rogner Bad Blumau: Melchior, Balthasar and Vulkania. 

Melchior and Vulkania are the two hot springs for the indoor and outdoor pools in the spa 

area, the Balthasar spring is used to heat the whole wellness area together with Vulkania since 

the year 2000. 

Balthasar Spring 

This spring rises from a depth of 3.045 metres. The Vulkania water is reinjected into the 

Balthasar spring drilling after it has delivered all its heat. Therefore the geological circulation 

is closed. 

Melchior spring 

The Melchior curative spring is the “gentle” and “mild” one. The water temperature of the 

mineral-rich spa water is 47.2 degrees Celsius as it flows out of the ground. It has its source at 

a depth of 970 metres, as a sodium hydrogen carbonate spring. Its curative power is based on 

a number of valuable substances. 

For more information take a look at the water analysis in the chapter “Fact & Figures”. 

V u l k a n i a s p r i n g - t h e m o s t m i n e r a l - r i c h c u r a t i v e w a t e r 

i n t h e S t y r i a n s p a r e g i o n 

Since 2003 the Vulkania spring offers another excellent supplement to the existing buildings 

and offers. The garden of the four elements with the Vulkania lake and its approx. 30.000 m2 

area and the atrium offers a huge place for relaxing. The two Vulkania lakes get constantly 

fresh water from the Vulkania spring so the water is free from chemical additives. Underwater 

music creates a pleasant atmosphere.One can swim and recover in the millennium old, high 

mineralised Vulkania water. The water feels like silk on your skin. It strengthens the skin and 

the metabolism, it supports the blood circulation and has curative effects on the whole body. 

The Vulkania curative spring is a deep ground water with a unique composition. It has its 

source at a depth of 2,843 metres. The water outflow temperature is approx. 110 degrees 

Celsius. The mineral content of this naturally concentrated brine spring exceeds many times 

over the level required for curative effects. 

Over 1 million years ago, an inland sea came into being in a volcanic landscape. Over the 

millennia, it was hermetically sealed off from outside influences through tectonic movements 

and overlapping of the fissures of the volcanoes. Through deep thermal drilling, this unique 

primeval sea was discovered. Now this Vulkania curative water, unadulterated by any 

environmental influences, can be used for regeneration and recovery at Rogner Bad Blumau.

Additional advantage of the Vulkania spring 

The Vulkania spring is not only used for the pools, with its high temperature and huge amount 

of CO2 the spring has also other advantages. 

The natural CO2 

In the past thousand years the water was also enriched with natural CO2. The water can be 

used for the pools without chlorine because of this natural carbonic acid. 

The „natural“ power 

With a temperature of 110C° the Vulkania water generates electricity and it heats the whole 

hotel and spa facilities – therefore 1,300 tons of fuel oil and 3,900 tons CO2 output are 

reduced every year. 

Vulkania soap and cream 

the Vulkania bodycare line has been developed “in harmony with nature”, in accordance with 

strict Ecotest guidelines, using mild, natural, herbal ingredients. Besides valuable Vulkania 

curative water as the basic component, “treasures” of Styria – such as peach extract and 

purest grape seed oil – also give nurturing care. 

Vulkania treatments in our health care centre 

In the health care centre all body packs are enriched with Vulkania water. 

PearlBath for more vitality – the original Vulkania water is enriched again with the natural 

CO2, and this originates a milky, sparkling bath. This stimulates the blood circulation and makes 

the skin soft and smooth. 

D e a d S e a S a l t G r o t t o 

The walls, the ceiling and the floor consist 100% of salt from the Dead Sea. During your 

session in the Dead Sea Salt Grotto, you inhale pure ionised air, rich in micro-elements like 

iodine, potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium, iron and selenium. 

Effects 

• Optimal stress reduction 

• Beneficial effect on all respiratory illnesses 

• Enhancement of physical and mental achievement potential

S a u n a a r e a 

Saunas and other forms of hot-air baths enjoy a long tradition. The over-heating of the body 

with the subsequent sweating cleanses the body from inside to outside, simultaneously

R i t u a l s 

Rituals provide and convey a special experience, mood, atmosphere and energy. They provide 

power and stability, banish fear and selfdoubt 

and bring relaxation and peace. Rituals are a part of life. Often the performance of rituals is 

not noticed at all; other rituals, however, are done very consciously, like the ones done at 

Rogner Bad Blumau. Here these events are "rung in" with the hourly gong in the indoor spa. 

Apart from fragrant fumigations you are awaited by fresh fruit and very special sauna 

infusions.

H e a l t h c a r e a n d b e a u t y c e n t r e

The Geomantic path – the path of perception and healing 

The thermal springs of Blumau are located on highly sensitive ground, where a number of 

power points, centres of vital energy and natural intelligence can be found. It was Mrs. Melitta 

Rogner who was the first person to be struck by the feeling that there was something special 

about the place. Upon this discovery, the artist and natural healer Marko Pogacnik did some 

research on site and identified its special value for the ethereal world. During construction, 

special care was taken to make sure that these precious places were not destroyed. As a result, 

the geomantic path was created, along which guests can get to know and feel the power 

points. 

The Celtic Tree Circle 

Every guest at Rogner Bad Blumau has the chance to find their personal birthday tree and to 

get to know their own character traits in the thermal park. From identifying these traits and 

from the magical qualities of the trees, every human being can gain power and support to 

master all situations in life. For thousands of years there has been a deep relation between 

mankind and the tree, the most powerful plant on earth. For mankind, it was always been an 

ancient symbol in various shapes. Especially for the Celts, our ancestors, trees played a central 

role in their lives that was deeply linked to nature. During the rhythm of the seasons, in the 

course of many years, they assigned (allocated) certain times and occasions to them. The 

Celtic circle of trees came into existence.
