Roman bench on Lake Attersee

Attersee am Attersee, Oberösterreich, Österreich

Carpe Diem – the Romans knew very well, which places in the Salzkammergut region were worth a break to seize the day!

Today, one of these places is the longest bench in the Salzkammergut, directly on the lakeshore esplanade in Attersee am Attersee.
When you gaze into the crystal-clear waters reflecting all shades of turquoise, you are likely to get lost in thoughts. While you let the waves play with your feet casually dipped into to waters, the imposing height and size of the Höllengebirge mountain range will captivate you. The information panels embedded in the bench can serve as an inspiration for an imaginary journey back in time to our Roman ancestors.
Live and enjoy – that is what the Romans did, and we should do the same. Treat yourself to a drink or a fine meal and forget about time.
