HLW Feldbach

HLW Feldbach is a vocational school in eastern Austria offering three- or five-year programs in business, hospitality, and food development. The training combines classroom learning with hands-on work in modern kitchens and production facilities on campus.

The school started in 1954 as a one-year household management program for young women. It expanded over decades into a multi-level vocational institution and gained its current status as a higher education school in 1999.

Students work closely with local food producers and farmers, learning traditional cooking and food processing methods that tie into regional traditions. This direct connection to the land shapes how they approach their studies and future work.

The school is an active campus with classrooms, kitchens, and production areas that have restricted access during school hours. It is best to arrange a visit in advance if you wish to see the facilities and meet staff or current students.

The school operates its own restaurant and bakery where students practice while producing real food and baked goods for the local community. This setup blends learning with actual business operations.
