Hallsatt is a small village in the heart of the Austrian Alps. It is located on the shores of Lake Hallstatt, at the foot of the high mountains. From time immemorial its existence was linked to the exploitation of the rock salt mines in these mountains that has continued over the centuries. However, this has been just a fraction of its archaeological importance to European prehistory. These mines have brought worldwide fame and notoriety to Hallsatt and have made it deserving of its declaration as World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1977.
