They do have a sinister historical record with their daughter company IG Farben, though, but it seems like it's all mostly "forgotten" now... IG Farben was the company who made the infamous "Zyklon B"... Sorry for this off-topic comment....

The Pfaender mountain is also worth a visit: http://www.pfaender.at/engl.html . Depending on your energy levels, either go up via cable car and walk down, or the other way round It's a wonderful part of the world; I'm sure you'll have a great time.
