Schliersee – Self-at home, at the dinner table, there are ski legend Markus Wasmeier and his wife Brigitte there is no other topic more. His beloved open-air Museum at Schliersee is allowed to open for two weeks – but in particular, the guests from Munich remain for the most part. “If this continues, I need to think about all your options,” he says of the tz, “Hours shorten, right to terminate employees, in the worst case, even a closure…“
open-air Museum of Wasmeier to Corona, break open
As Wasmeier and his Team after the Corona break open were, had all been highly motivated. Quickly, the shock came. “Of the usually 600 to 700 guests, a third came to the maximum,” says the former Olympic champion. Event guests like honeymoon couples, travellers, and groups that book a tour – all of these guests in Corona times. Until today he had only made Minus. On Pentecost it ran a little better. “Since the first tourists came. The majority of day-trippers from Munich, pulls it but at the moment only in the mountains.“
open-air Museum in Fischhausen – a magnet for visitors at the Schliersee
What it is about Markus Wasmeier can only speculate. “Maybe people are thinking at a Museum in long queues, protective masks and enclosed spaces.” It Wasis private Museum is a safe place. Even if the checkout time, a short queue is created (no online ticket purchase necessary!) – on the site under the open sky, the visitor is most of the time, the area is of 60,000 square meters.
On most of the Wasi takes care of his 90 employees. Currently in short-time work. “Since we have anyway lucky us, the state helps,” he says. Nevertheless, it could happen in the worst case, he can’t hold his staff. “I want to hurt at all, did me in the heart!”
last weekend, as for the first time in a couple of children in his open-air Museum rumwuselten and Play games from 100 years ago, hilarious as the down-to-earth Schlierseer that is born here has created, again, a little bit of hope. “It was almost like before Corona.” The more important it is to him that his dream project, he built for himself can exactly exist in this Form. “I see myself as a mediator of culture and history with all your senses, as a service provider.”
the relationship between the Schliersee local politics and probably the most famous son of the municipality, Markus Wasmeier is between times tense.
