Keltendorf Schwarzenbach, Archaeological museum and Celtic settlement in Schwarzenbach, Austria.
Keltendorf Schwarzenbach is an open-air museum with nine reconstructed buildings from the Iron Age, including craftsmen workshops, storage structures, and homes. These buildings show how people lived and worked during that period.
The site shows reconstructions of a Celtic settlement from the 2nd and 1st centuries BCE. The museum preserves archaeological knowledge about how these ancient communities lived and built their structures.
The museum organizes an annual Celtic festival that brings together researchers, artisans, and visitors to explore ancient traditions and practices.
The museum sits on a hilltop and is easy to reach on foot from the center of Schwarzenbach. The area is laid out openly and clearly, so visitors can explore all the buildings at their own pace.
The reconstructions were developed with scientists from Vienna's Institute for Archaeological Science to be as authentic as possible. This close collaboration with experts makes the site a valuable place to understand Iron Age building techniques.
