Keltenmuseum Hallein

Keltenmuseum Hallein, Celtic museum in Hallein, Austria.

The Keltenmuseum Hallein is a museum in Hallein that displays archaeological findings from Celtic settlements, including objects from burial sites and salt mining locations at nearby Dürrnberg. The collection contains pottery, weapons, jewelry, and other artifacts dating back thousands of years.

The museum was established in 1970 in the former Salt Offices building, located beside the Salzach River in Hallein and part of the town's historical salt infrastructure. This location connects the Celtic past with the later importance of Hallein as a salt mining center.

The exhibits show objects that reveal how Celtic people lived in this region, from weapons and jewelry to everyday items used in daily life. These artifacts give a sense of the communities that existed here and what mattered to them.

The museum is open daily during set hours and offers guided tours and educational programs for different age groups. Plan your visit to allow time for viewing the exhibits and potentially joining a guided tour if you want more detailed information.

The museum displays paintings in dedicated rooms that depict salt production processes from the 1700s under the rule of prince-archbishops. These artworks show how the salt industry flourished under church leadership and shaped the region's development.
