Hallstatt Austria 8K 🇦🇹

Hallstatt is a village in Upper Austria. Currently, a little over 900 people live there. It is in the Salzkammergut, a mountain regionin Austria. It lies on a lake. Because of its position, Hallstatt could only be reached by boat (or by using narrow, difficult mountain trails) for a long time. At the end of the 19th century a road was built. Despite this, even in the Neolithic people might have lived there. This is because there is a lot of natural salt there. In 1846, Johann Georg Ramsauer (a salt miner) found a cemetery from the neolithic age just above the village. A cultural epoch in Europe is named after this. It is called Hallstatt culture. Other finds in the region include a Shoe-last celt (a special kind of wedge, probably used to treat wood). A blacksmith site has also been excavatzed. Today, the village lives mainly on tourism. There is a copy of the village in China. info source: - End track: Where Stars Fall by Scott Buckley | Music promoted by Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) - Thumbnail picture: By Bwag - Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, - Support me on Patreon : For one dollar or more you support me to keep creating content for my channel ! - If you are a youtuber you need Tubebuddy !
