"Glück auf" at the Berchtesgaden Salt Mine! After a ride on the mine train, you will gain exciting insights into the history and technical achievements of over 500 years of salt mining. Fresh water is fed into sinking works, now known as drilling flush works, until a brine with a salt content of around 25 per cent is produced. From 1817 onwards, the construction of a brine pipeline to the Bad Reichenhall salt works secured the supply of raw materials for salt production for the future.
Those who want to do something for their health can experience the effects of salt on body, mind and soul in the only salt healing gallery in Western Europe.
