Traditional Guided Barbara Tour with Blessing of the St. Barbara Twigs
December 4th, 2024 at 7:00 p.m.
Immerse yourself in the mystical depths of Salzwelten Altaussee for a special guided tour culminating in a devotional ceremony in our St. Barbara Chapel. The centerpiece of this event is the blessing of the so-called “St. Barbara Twigs”, all set to the musical backdrop of our beautifully restored Baroque-era salt mine organ. After the blessings, musicians will perform a short concert on our subterranean stage, set beside an underground lake.
Entry is free.
However, voluntary contributions for the musical highlights of the evening are very much appreciated.
