UNESCO world heritage “Prehistoric pile dwellings around the Alps”

The pile dwelling settlements were listed as the 9th UNESCO World Heritage site in Austria and have thus become part of the collective memory of the whole world.

These settlements date back up to 6000 years and the majority of the sites discovered in Austria until today are located on the shores of Lake Attersee. Let one of our specialised guides take you back to the Stone Age and to the first settlers on the shores of Lake Attersee and learn interesting historic facts.
