About the Old Salt Works

The Old Salt Works under the picturesque Gruttenstein Castle are embedded in the historical heart of the town of Bad Reichenhall. They were built by King Ludwig I. in 1834 and at their time were an outstanding industrial plant, modern and representative.

The historical equipment and the integrated Salt Museum are open to interested parties for walks around with a guide. A worthwhile destination for guests from all over the world who are interested in salt and brine, in engineering and history.
