It grew in importance as a center of the region’s salt industry,
with wealth and influence flowing through the town for centuries
thanks to this valuable resource.

leaving behind refined architecture and civic traditions.
Today, landmarks like Schloss Ort and the historic town square
reflect this legacy with lakeside castles,
ornate buildings,
and streets that open onto views of Traunsee.
