History of
HOCHTIEF Construction Austria
HOCHTIEF has been operating in Austria through a business unit since

In 2007, after the acquisition of a number of major projects, HOCHTIEF Construction
Austria was established as an independent national company. It is a wholly owned
subsidiary of HOCHTIEF Solutions AG.
Since 2008, HOCHTIEF Construction Austria has served within HOCHTIEF Solutions AG as the competence center for earthworks and road construction, offering its know-how both at home and abroad – and to the Group as well.
In fall 2010, HOCHTIEF Solutions Bulgaria, founded in 2002, was added to the company as a branch. From their bases in Vienna and Sofia, the two units now bundle their competencies and offer solutions for complex projects in Southeast Europe.
Chronicle of HOCHTIEF
The history of HOCHTIEF, the largest construction company in Germany,
dates back to the 19th century.
The company was founded in 1874 by the brothers Helfmann near Frankfurt on the Main.
In 1896 it was transformed into a corporation for structural and civil engineering
works, and virtually at the same time the first foreign order was already received.

With the invention of reinforced concrete HOCHTIEF was able to advance its successful
development further. Already in 1922 the company headquarters were relocated to
Essen. After the reconstruction works of the Second World War and the economic recovery
associated with it, HOCHTIEF established itself worldwide. Today the group is an
international construction service provider and covers the entire range of construction
and the services associated with it.
