Obertraun, Austria. 

Shalom! World.


Obertraun, UpperAustria is a village inn the Salzkammergut, a regionin Áustria. Itis locaated near the Hallstatt Lakeand the Hoher Dachstein.



It is a good option to walk from the Hallstatt Train Station  to Obertraun. 


Originally a part of the  Duchy of Bavária, the town became part of  the Duchy of Áustria during the 12th century. It wasoccupied several times during the Napoleonic Wars. Since 1918 it is part of Upper Áustria and since 1921 na autonomous town (before that, it  was part of Hallstatt). 



In 1895 an "association for beautification of the town and advancement of tourism" was founded. That was the startingpoint for tourism at Obertraun. During the summer of that year, the first tourists arrive at the town. In 1947 the construction of the Dachstein Cablecar is started. 

Shalom! Aleichem.
