It is very popular in Austrian, in particular the TV series from the 70s with Fritz Muliar as the main actor 1972: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_Abenteuer_des_braven_Soldaten_Schwejk_(Fernsehserie). The theatre plays are also quite popular. I even read the novel as a kid because my father had it in his library :)
