Austria's Largest Active Salt Mine: Guided Tours of the Salzwelten in Altaussee

Deep inside the salt mountain of Altaussee in the Styrian Salzkammergut, a hidden world awaits to be explored — a world that reflects the fascinating diversity of everything connected to salt, its history, and its significance. What makes the Salzwelten Altaussee truly special is that it is the largest active salt mine in Austria and, at the same time, tells a captivating story about miners saving art treasures during World War II. Visitors can immerse themselves in the underground world, where they slide down miners' chutes, see an underground salt lake and the mystical Barbarakapelle, and learn more about traditional salt mining.
