Café Hawelka, Vienna, 2022

            Café Hawelka is a famous café in Vienna, Austria. It was opened by Leopold and josefine Hawelka in 1939.

The café was closed after the beginning of World War II, but was reopened in 1945 in the largely intact building.

After the end of Allied occupation in 1955, the café quickly became a meeting point for writers and critics including Heimito von Doderer, Albert Paris Gütersloh, Hilde Spiel, Friedrich Torberg and Hans Weigel. In 1961 it became more popular among artists and became a center of the art scene. Regular guests included Friedrich Achleitner, H. C. Artmann, Konrad Bayer, Ernst Fuchs, Friedensreich Hundertwasser, Rudolf Hausner, Wolfgang Hutter, Helmut Qualtinger, Gerhard Rühm, and Oskar Werner.

Josefine Hawelka died in 2005 after having managed the café for 66 years with her husband. She had baked the café's specialty, its Buchteln desserts (which are still made by Günther Hawelka, Josefine and Leopold's son).

Leopold Hawelka would sit at the entrance to his now famous café and greet his customers until he died in 2011.
