Historischer Salzweg mit dem Raddampfer Gisela

Salt transport across the Traunsee

For many centuries, salt barges were used on Lake Traunsee to transport the precious salt from Ebensee to Gmunden. As part of the Capital of Culture, an exact replica of a 16th-century salt tug was created, which will now make its journeys on the lake.

Let yourself be transported back in time on a round trip with the Gisela on the salt train, when salt was transported across Lake Traunsee with the help of salt pans.
