WURMKOGEL-ANNIVERSARY EDITION 2012
Y E A R S
Dear guests,
The Wurmkogel Hotel celebrates its 50th birthday in 2012
and we are so pleased to be able to celebrate this special day
with you.
A lot has happened in 50 years!
When my father purchased the »Schertlerhaus«, the former
builders‘ shed of the Trimmeljochstraße in 1962, he was fasci-
nated by the place, and probably passed a lot of this fascina-
tion on to me.
Since then the Wurmkogel Hotel has turned into a spa pa-
radise where you can spend many a holiday in comfortable
familiar surroundings.
I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt
thanks to our qualified and friendly team who make this pos-
sible and I hope that they will stay with us for years to come.
On a personal note I would like to thank my wonderful fa-
mily of whom I am very proud and whose love and support is
paramount to the success of the hotel.
But dear guests, it is you that I am most grateful to for your
long years of trust and constant encouragement that we are
on the right path.
On this note we would like to wish you health and happiness,
and we hope that you will visit us again in the next 50 years.

My dear parents,
Since 1994 I have striven to carry on this business in your spi-
rit and I hope that you are proud of what has been achieved
at the hotel.
Many thanks for the opportunity that you gave me and if you

Professor Dr. Bruno Haid born 2 May 1915 in Ötz
Son of a long-established, traditional Ötztal family.
Founder Prof. Dr. Bruno Haid with haflinger horses on Timmelsjochstraße.
17 July 1959A big day for the Ötz Valley. That street that had been en-visaged at the turn of the century and which one had been trying to build for years after the Second World War was now a reality. The 12km street from Untergurgl to Tim-melsjoch was completed after four years of construction. For this construction the »Schertlerhaus« was erected on the site where Hotel Wurmkogel now stands. It served as shelter for the engineers and was scheduled to be dis-mantled after completion of the project.
1962Acquisition of the »Schertlerhaus« by Dr. Bruno Haid.
The street is publicly extended on the South Tirol side and creates a very short link between Austria and Italy in the summertime.
1970Construction of a two-floor building behind the »Schertler-haus«. On the ground floor a stable and a barn were built, with eight guest rooms on the first floor.
15 September 1968
After attending grammar school in Innsbruck and then a humanities-oriented grammar school in Mehrerau where he passed his school leaving exams in 1935, he continued his studies in the Faculty of Medicine of Innsbruck University and gradua-ted as a doctor of medicine in 1941. Supported by his teacher Prof. Burkhard Breitner, a celebrated Innsbruck surgeon, he went to the USA in 1949 after his training, where he undertook further study in the field of modern anaesthesia technique. In 1959 he was appointed chairman of the first independent university hospital of anaesthesiology with its own teaching staff, which in 1959 was a first in Europe. He was world-renowned for his research and knowledge in the fields of anaesthesiology, reanimation and intensive medicine.As a keen mountaineer and ambitious skier he also had a strong interest in emergency medicine. As ear-ly as 1942 he organised the world‘s first flight rescue in Ötztal, which saved the life of a mountaineer who met an accident in the glacier. At the 1964 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck he led the medical care for the athletes. He retired on 1 October 1985 and moved back home to Hochgurgl. In October 1994 he suffered a serious stroke and died on 27 December 1997.
We will always remember him with love and thanks.
