'''Hallstatt''' ({{IPA|de|ˈhalʃtat|lang|de-Hallstatt.ogg}}) is a small town in the [[Gmunden District]] of the [[States of Austria|Austrian state]] of [[Upper Austria]]. Situated between the southwestern shore of [[Hallstätter See]] and the steep slopes of the [[Dachstein]] massif, the town lies in the [[Salzkammergut]] region, on the national road linking [[Salzburg]] and [[Graz]].

Hallstatt is known for its [[Salt mining|production of salt]], dating back to prehistoric times, and gave its name to the [[Hallstatt culture]], the archaeological culture linked to [[Proto-Celtic]] and early [[Celts|Celtic]] people of the [[Iron Age Europe|Early Iron Age]] in Europe, c. 800–450 BC.

Hallstatt is at the core of the [[Hallstatt-Dachstein/Salzkammergut Cultural Landscape]] declared as one of the [[List of World Heritage Sites in Austria|World Heritage Sites in Austria]] by [[UNESCO]] in 1997. It is an area of [[overtourism]].

During the [[Bronze Age]] salt production became day-to-day commercial activity in Hallstatt. Salt was produced in large quantities in evidently highly organized arrangements. Specialist workers supported the salt mining operations.<ref>{{cite book | author1=Anthony Harding |title=Salt in Prehistoric Europe |publisher= Sidestone Press |year=2013 |page=88 |isbn=9789088902017 }}</ref> The [[wealth]] that was generated is on display in the prehistoric cemeteries in Hallstatt.<ref>{{cite book | editor1=Paul Freedman |title=Food: The History of Taste |publisher= University of California Press |year=2007 |page=57 |isbn=9780520254763 }}</ref>

In 1846 [[Johann Georg Ramsauer]] discovered a large [[Grave field|prehistoric cemetery]] at the Salzberg mines near Hallstatt ({{coor|47.561|N|13.642|E|}}), which he excavated during the second half of the 19th century. Eventually the excavation would yield 1,045 burials, although no settlement has yet been found. This may be covered by the later village, which has long occupied the entire narrow strip between the steep hillsides and the lake.

Some 1,300 burials have been found, including around 2,000 individuals, with women and children but few infants.<ref name=":2">{{Cite book|title=Celtic art: from its beginnings to the Book of Kells|last=Megaw, M.

The humans that settled Hallstatt exploited the [[salt mine]]s in the area from the 8th to 5th centuries BC. The style and decoration of the grave goods found in the cemetery are distinctive. In the mine workings themselves, the salt has preserved many organic materials such as textiles, wood, and leather, and many abandoned artefacts such as shoes, pieces of cloth, and tools and miner's backpacks have survived in good condition.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Handbook to life in prehistoric Europe|last=McIntosh, Jane.|date=2009|publisher=Oxford University Press|isbn=978-0-19-538476-5|location=Oxford|oclc=261176933}}</ref>{{Rp|88}}

Hallstatt A–B are part of the [[Bronze Age Europe|Bronze Age]] [[Urnfield culture]]. Phase A saw [[Villanova culture|Villanovan]] influence. In this period, people were cremated and buried in simple graves. In phase B, [[tumulus]] (barrow or [[kurgan]]) burial becomes common, and [[cremation]] predominates. Little is known about this period in which the typical Celtic elements have not yet distinguished themselves from the earlier Villanova-culture. The "Hallstatt period" proper is restricted to HaC and HaD (8th to 5th centuries BC), corresponding to the early [[European Iron Age]]. Hallstatt lies in the area where the western and eastern zones of the Hallstatt culture meet, which is reflected in the finds from there.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Celtic culture: a historical encyclopedia|date=2006|publisher=ABC-CLIO|others=Koch, John T.|isbn=1-85109-440-7|location=Santa Barbara, Calif.|oclc=62381207}}</ref>

Hallstatt C is characterized by the first appearance of iron swords. Hallstatt D displays daggers, almost to the exclusion of swords, in the western zone graves ranging from circa 600 to 500 BC.<ref name=":2" />{{Rp|40}} There are also differences in the pottery and [[brooch]]es. Halstatt D has been further divided into the sub-phases D1 to D3 relating only to the western zone.<ref name=":2" />{{Rp|40}}

Major activity at the site appears to have finished about 500 BC, for reasons that are unclear. Many Hallstatt graves were robbed, probably at this time. There was widespread disruption throughout the western Hallstatt zone, and the salt workings had by then become very deep.<ref name=":2" />{{Rp|48–49}} 

Much of the material from early excavations was dispersed,<ref name=":2" />{{Rp|26}}

Until the late 19th century, it was only possible to reach Hallstatt by boat or via narrow [[trail]]s. The land between the lake and mountains was sparse, and the town itself exhausted every free patch of it. Access between houses on the river bank was by boat or over the ''upper path'', a small corridor passing through attics. The first road to Hallstatt was only built in 1890, along the west shore, partially by rock blasting. Nevertheless, this secluded and inhospitable landscape counts as one of the first places of [[human]] settlement due to the rich sources of natural [[salt]], which have been mined for thousands of years, originally in the shape of hearts owing to the use of [[antler]] picks.<ref name="virtual"/>

==Hallstatt salt mine==
The Hallstatt salt mine is the world's oldest working salt mine. The mine is located within the [[Upper Permian]] to [[Lower Triassic]] [[Haselgebirge]] [[formation (geology)|Formation]] of the [[Northern Limestone Alps]]. The Hallstatt salt mine comprises 21 levels and several smaller shafts ranging from {{convert|514|m}} above sea level (Erbstollen level) to an elevation of around {{cvt|1267|m}} (Erzherzog Matthias Schurf level).<ref>{{cite web |last1=Schorn |first1=Anja |last2=Neubauer |first2=Franz |title=The structure of the Hallstatt evaporite body (Northern 5 Calcareous Alps, Austria): a compressive diapir 6 superposed by strike-slip shear?, in Journal of Structural Geology |url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/259511596 |website=ResearchGate |access-date=15 January 2022 |date=2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |editor1-last=Kern |editor1-first=Anton |editor2-last=Kowarik |editor2-first=Kerstin |editor3-last=Rausch |editor3-first=Andreas |editor4-last=Reschreiter |editor4-first=Hans |title=Kingdom of Salt: 7000 years of Hallstatt |date=2009 |publisher=Natural History Museum |location=Vienna |isbn=9783903096080 |pages=12–33}}</ref>

==Tourism==

[[File:Blue Hallstatt (204466021).jpeg|thumb|Hallstatt in Winter]]
Hallstatt's tourism began in the 19th century but greatly increased after it was named a [[World Heritage Site|UNESCO World Heritage Site]] in 1997.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|url=https://ktla.com/2020/01/09/austrian-village-that-inspired-frozen-is-dealing-with-overtourism/|title=Austrian Village That Inspired 'Frozen' Is Dealing With Overtourism |date=2020-01-09 |publisher=KTLA |language=en |access-date=2020-01-13}}</ref> It became popular among East Asian tourists in 2006 when it was featured on a South Korean television show.<ref name=":3" /> 

Social media images of Hallstatt, captioned "the most [[Instagram]]mable town in the world", [[Viral phenomenon|went viral]] in Eastern and Southeastern Asia.<ref name=":3" /> In 2013, it was rumored in China to be the model for the movie ''[[Frozen (2013 film)|Frozen]]''{{'}}s Arendelle village.<ref name=":0" /> Filmmakers have said the village was based on research done in Norway and Canada, not in Austria, but the rumors increased daytourist visits.<ref name=":4" />

=== Notable places ===
Hallstatt has several tourist sites. These include:<ref>{{Cite web |last=s.r.o |first=illusion pictures |title=What to Do in Hallstatt: 5 Places to See |url=https://www.nextleveloftravel.com/austria/what-to-do-in-hallstatt-5-places-to-see-itinerary-maps-prices/ |access-date=2024-09-16 |website=NEXT LEVEL OF TRAVEL |language=en}}</ref> 

Hallstatt Skywalk: Hallstatt Skywalk, also known as the "World Heritage View", offers a panorama of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Located 360 meters above Hallstatt, the platform overlooks the village, Lake Hallstatt and the surrounding Dachstein Alps. 

Hallstatt Ossuary (Beinhaus): Located in St. Michael's Chapel, the Ossuary is a cultural monument comprising more than 1,200 human skulls, 600 of which are artistically painted with symbols, names and dates. The tradition of painting skulls and preserving bones began due to limited burial space in the village.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2025-04-17 |title=Austria - places to visit in Austria - Travel Best Plan |url=https://travelbestplan.com/austria-places-to-visit-in-austria/ |access-date=2025-04-28 |website=travelbestplan.com |language=en-US}}</ref>

[[Hallstatt Museum]] and Excavations: The Hallstatt Museum covers the ancient history of the region, especially its role in the salt trade. It features artifacts from the Hallstatt culture, dating back to the Bronze and Iron Ages, including tools, weapons and burial objects. The museum also covers the archaeological excavations in the nearby area that reveal the complex society of the Hallstatt civilization.{{fact|date=December 2024}}

==Climate==
Hallstatt, like much of Austria (see [[Climate of Austria]]), has a [[Humid continental climate|humid continental]] climate ([[Köppen climate classification|''Dfb'']]) ([[Oceanic climate|''Cfb'']] if the {{Convert|-3.0|C|F}} isotherm is used) with warm, rainy summers and chilly to cold, snowy winters. Precipitation is plentiful year-round, hence the ''f'' in ''Dfb,'' but is at its highest during the three months of summer: Jun-Aug.

Spring is a short (March and April) transition season between cold winters and mild summers. By mid-November, fall has turned to winter and the nighttime low temperature is around freezing, giving a growing season of April to early November.{{Weather box
