Bad Aussee, Alpine spa municipality in Liezen District, Austria
Description
Bad Aussee sits at 659 meters elevation where three source streams of the Traun River converge in the Salzkammergut region. The town spreads along these waterways with forests and alpine landscapes surrounding it on all sides.
History
The town received market rights in 1295 and developed through medieval salt production centered at the Kammerhof administrative hub. These two foundations shaped its economy and structure for centuries to come.
Culture
The Narzissenfest in spring features large floral sculptures made from daffodils alongside traditional Austrian folk music performances. The celebration reflects the town's deep connection to its mountain springs and the changing seasons.
Practical
The town hall at Hauptstraße 48 provides administrative services with offices on the first floor. The valley location makes it easy to walk from the town center to reach most facilities and amenities.

The Ausseerdirndl with its green bodice, rose-colored skirt, and purple apron is still worn by local women as everyday dress. This distinctive costume sets the town apart from other Alpine communities in the region.
