Schanigarten

A sidewalk café called especially in eastern, but also in southern Austria one lying on public land directly in front of a restaurant business area where tables are set up for consumption. This is not a garden or green area. Often pub gardens are fenced with view protection walls, built on a podium or decorated with potted plants. In Germany, the counterpart is called a sidewalk café free dispensing area.

Schanigarten

On nice days, the standing in front of a cafe, pub or any other pub tables and chairs are popular. The pub gardens are places of relaxation and satisfy even seeing and being seen.

Situated the seating is on a wider sidewalk, in a park strip or in a pedestrian zone. The sidewalk café is always in close proximity to the actual local and is usually limited to the local width. Some of the outdoor restaurants are separated by flower boxes and medium-height partitions of the surroundings is something many have umbrellas, some awnings. Especially with inclined planes and when the parking lane is used is often its own platform as a basis. But all parts are usually not permanently attached to the substrate and are degraded except in exceptional cases by the end of the season.

The principal difference to the normal garden is that the visitors sit on any public property. But not everyone is different so. Subsequently, the name can be found Schanigarten for small dining areas in homes or through the busier courts. Some call each guest garden as a summer beer garden.

So popular are the outdoor restaurants at the guests, so there are always problems between residents ( residents ) and the local owners because of the noise in the late evening. The food would ask the guests as late as possible to the local or send home some bordering want as early as possible curfew. A place in 2010 on a trial basis assembled a kind of traffic light with built-in volume meter. You should show the guests on the basis of traffic light colors and smileys in which area their noise level. Problem areas, there are also because of the parking partially used.

In Vienna, there were 2010 total of about 2500 beer gardens around 1,800 Schanigärten. The prescribed maximum Schanigartensaison runs from 1 March to 15 November. A press meeting with representatives of the City and the Chamber of Commerce as the official start of the season takes place every year in another local place during March.

The city of Leoben advertises its main square as the "greatest Schanigarten Austria" ( the number of farms use ) and referred to it as " Leoben " open-air living room " ." In 2007, the film festival on the Rathausplatz in Vienna, which is managed by several farms, was called " the largest Schanigarten Austria" or as "the largest sidewalk café in the world". In Graz would be a sidewalk café with 30 tables and 120 chairs arguably the greatest of the city, he would be granted.

History

Johann Jakob Tarone, vulgo Taroni ( † 22 January 1777 written at the age of 71 years, also Tarroni, at least since 1993, with the Italian version of the name: Gianni ) of the impoverished by general changes in the serving permits state of " water torch " ( brandy ) belonged, opened in 1748 on the lively ditch (then Konskriptionsnummer 1134 b, today Ordnungsnr. 14-15, corner Habsburgergasse ) a coffeehouse. On May 6, 1754 he was granted a tent in addition to serving the " refreshing waters" aufzuschlagen as they were already operated by Vincent Zandonati since 1728 on the farm and in the conflagration. Well between them, so in 1750, he received permission to be allowed to set up tables and chairs in front of the cafe. This is regarded as the birth of the Vienna sidewalk café. Since it is for women not sent to go to the cafe, but only in the pastry shop, they could participate in the coffee house life through the garden for the first time.

In 1825 Simon Corra took over in 1794 by Georg Poehlein opened in civic hospital house cafe, and built according to the company's history the first classical sidewalk café with tables, chairs and potted plants. The coffee was demolished in the course of the many years of civil hospital demolition in 1882 and in the newly constructed houses a coffee was opened in immediate succession, which means since 1929 Café Mozart.

Where and when did the sidewalk café takes its name, is not clear, however, there are several assumptions:

  • Both Tarone, and Tarroni are names of Italian origin and the coffee was said to be the meeting point of living in Vienna Italians. With reference to Christoph Wagner explains Heinz Dieter Pohl that Gianni Tarroni is the starting point for Giannis garden, from which then came to the sidewalk café. The joins Robert Sedlaczek.
  • There are French influence since the mid-12th century court culture resulting in several waves. He strengthened in the second half of the 16th century, reached in the 17th century in the wake of the so-called Alamodewesens a second climax and an absolute highlight in the first half of the 18th century The French Revolution from 1789 and the February Revolution in 1848 some segments of the population drive for a certain Francophilia, the Congress of Vienna in 1814/1815 again in others. In the second half of the 19th century, the English slowly becomes a competition and the change takes place from the turn of the century. During the French influence also in the German speaking French fashion names, or you can use the French version of his first name. Shani is one resulting in Vienna or the Vienna suburbs variant of the French Jean, Johann. In theory even so the Urbesitzer be involved, the restaurant but that is actually referred always as Tar ( r) oni.
  • Also a long very popular version has the French influence as a basis. Moritz Heyne points in 1869 in the German dictionary for " Hans " on the importance of a name as common as to which existing in the 16th and 17th centuries fixed formula for the rich, respected big Hans, the one a little Hans faced as a contrast, and in the designations employed mercenaries great Hans / Hans smaller, which indicated the higher or lower position in the army and held until the 17th century into it. In the Oeconomischen Encyclopedia of Krünitz from the years 1783/1792 are " Johann ", " Hans " and "petit -Jean " ( smaller Johann ') as a nickname for staff, porters, etc. listed " when his right Taufnahmen do not know. " Johann is thus a registry name for a servant or even a waiter and the local diminutive shame, especially for the little waiter, the Piccolo or subsequently for a henchman. One of these Schanis supposed to have once got the job: " Shani, contract the garden aussi " and be thereby became the namesake for the garden.

From folk singer William Wiesberg there is the duet Shani, contract ' the garden aussi! , The manuscript is dated June 28, 1888. Probably from the 1970s is pure cabaret song Shani contract ' the garden to the Martin Flossmann and Robert Gilbert wrote the text and Michael Danzinger the music.

The slogan appeared in 1910 at the Berlin city researcher Hans Ostwald as " Fritze, contract out the garden! " And he describes a courtyard with some wallflowers and oleander is the only flora. The " garden take out " is also taken up in 1920 by Kurt Tucholsky alias Theobald Tiger in his satirical summer song as a sign for the summer: When summer turns blue when the bum steals, if the landlord provides the garden side [ ... ].

The concept of Schanigartens originated in Vienna, in the meantime he has in any case spread to Salzburg and Carinthia. In Tyrol and especially in Vorarlberg he is known, but rather colloquially classified or concrete used for Viennese pub gardens.

Terms of Use

Legally, there are two federal legislation to be worn:

  • According to § 82 para 1 Road Traffic Act, a use of roads ( and sidewalks ) to transport foreign purposes is subject to approval and must not interfere with traffic safety. Usually, care is taken in obtaining permits that depending on footfall enough space on the pavement remains. One often reads of benchmarks by 1.50 m, in Vienna are 2m usual.
  • Commercial Legally, outdoor dining areas since mid-2010 in § 76a of the Commercial Regulations. After that, they need up to a size of 75 seats, if they only serve gastronomic purposes and the volume in the conversation usual frame remains (eg, no grilling, playing music, " public viewing " ) and is made aware of a sign on it, no lengthy commercial authorization procedure and may be operated 8-23 clock for a simple display as verging on the road visiting gardens. But the same applies to beer gardens in courtyards ( without touching public surfaces ), then a time 9-22 clock.

If these basic requirements are not met repeatedly, the closure of the garden may be disposed of after a single warning. Other Schanigärten need as far a more complex operating systems - authorization, in the littoral have party status. Also a cancellation or amendment of such permit process is more complex and takes longer. The municipality may, after the commercial law in certain circumstances, in certain areas, the operating times shorten ( for example, where a risk to health of residents in hospitals or nursing homes ) or extend ( for example, in tourist areas, especially to 24 clock, with special zoning, low obstruction density). It can also be decided in individual cases as part of an operating systems - authorization, such as when no neighbors are present that could be disturbed.

Legally community is payable as in Vienna for front gardens of business premises with a square meters dependent use tax for the use of the local public reason. It is higher for front gardens in busy pedestrian zones and traffic zones than in less frequented areas of the city. As part of the approval process is also taken to ensure that the sidewalk café fits into the townscape. According to this Regulation, the maximum Schanigartensaison on March 1, is limited to 15 November.

Legal History

In the Industrial Code ( Industrial Code ) the basic rules for outdoor dining areas appear again and again in different paragraphs. In the Industrial Code 1973, from 1993 to 1994, the § 153 in the new Industrial Code 1994 in 1994 to 2002, § 148, from 2002 to 2010 § 112, and since August 2010 it is his own 78aVorlage §: § / Maintenance / RIS search.

By 1997, beer gardens were on and virtually assimilated alongside public roads in terms of opening times with others. Since this year is distinguished from older decisions of the Constitutional Court.

The distinction between ( high turnover ) pedestrian and traffic zones with higher output and other locations takes place in Vienna since April 1982. In July 1990, the beginning of the Schanigartensaison from April was brought forward to March. In 2000, existing since the 1960 general veto the building owner has been repealed and granted him only an ordinary party status. Some owners had made ​​its approval of financial contributions of different height as they see fit dependent. From 2000 to 2005 the city was extended in mid-summer from 15 June to 15 September, the opening time of the sidewalk cafés on 24 clock with the respective regulation " a trade in beer gardens in year X " in certain areas. By judgment of 12 September 2007, the Administrative Court had called for a system operating permit in Vienna, continuing the ruling of the Constitutional Court of 1996. This was a reason to amend the Industrial Code 2010 in order to achieve administrative simplification.
