 Elisabeth's silhouette makes
for a great memory. by seamandrew
Elisabeth was busy taking a picture of the Wolfgangsee and I stood behind her seeing her silhouette form an everlasting impint in my mind. I'm so glad I took this picture, but it wasn't necessary as this moment will always be in my mind. Sankt Wolfgang is truly a romantic place. Leave a Comment

The village of St.Wolfgang soon became an important place for pilgrimage in the 14th-16th century. In 1873 the Schafbergbahn was built and in 1930 the operetta made St.Wolfgang and the "Weisses Roessel" famous all over Europe. Leave a Comment

 Wolfgangsee by globetrott
Salzkammergut is the name of the region east of the town Salzburg, and it is partly situated in Bundesland Salzburg, partly in Oberoesterreich.
The typical landscape of Salzkammergut is consisting only of high mountains around several lakes and all of that region is also rich of SALT ( = Salz ).

In former times Salt-barons got really rich by selling their salt to places all over Europe. Today many of these salt-mines are not producing salt anymore, but you may go into the mountain by guided tours, and see how these mines once worked. The funniest part of these mines are in my memory the wooden slides, where you can slide down the mines during the guided tours. Leave a Comment

Weisses R?ssl means WHITE HORSE
Prices are pretty high in St. Wolfgang anyway, and in Weisses R?ssl they are even a bit higher...
BUT everyone wants to go there anyway, and most of the tourists also think of a certain melody :
Im weissen R?ssel am Wolfgangsee, da steht das Gl?ck vor der T?r, und ruft Dir zu : "Guten Morgen, im Weissen R?ssl am See"
(I tried to translate, but ALL of the certain poetry would be lost...)
Maybe someone has an apropriate way to translate ?? Leave a Comment

2 strong sticks were put into the fixtures and the tourists did not have to climb up the mountains themselves.
"Sesselträger" was a real profession and a good income untill the construction of the Schafbergbahn a bit more than 110 years ago.
