About Eleonore Koscher:

Thanks to Fr. and Fl. for the updates!

The oldest Austrian man who was born in February 1915 died in March 2026 at 111 years.

He could have been Top 9 or 10 of the World's Oldest Living Men (as of 28th March 2026).

RIP

Now the oldest living Austrian man is Weninger Johann (b. 18 August 1918), 108 y.o. Currently residing in Essen, Germany.

And the oldest man living in Austria is Colledani Herbert (b. 13 April 1919), 107 y.o.

PS Please don´t ask further questions. I cannot tell you more.

Top 10 Oldest Living People in Austria

Data as of 01 July 2026, Statistik Austria

 ...

 

The numbering is not correct, as there are five women born in 1918, while the 1919 cohort consists of ten women and two men. At least we now know the names of all the living men born in 1919.   

Josef Peham (Upper Austria) (b. 6 February 1919), 107 y.o. sadly passed away 5 months after his birthday. So we expected, as of 1 July 2026, 3 living men born in 1919...

Mr. Peham died 28 June 2026. RIP

PS The difficult numbering or ordering of the people is not a criticism of the previous lists, but only concerns my own presentation. For the anonymous individuals, we only know their year of birth and not the exact dates.

One could list the exact dates consecutively, with the anonymous individuals included as an additional entry.

PPS 28 June 2026 was one of the hottest days in 2026 in Austria. In my hometown were 37 degrees.

Thank you, my friend, for this explanation!
