Hallstatt Museum, Heritage museum in Hallstatt, Austria.

The Hallstatt Museum presents artifacts from local salt mines and Iron Age cemeteries across multiple exhibition rooms in a former parsonage building.

The museum opened in 1884 to showcase archaeological discoveries from systematic excavations that started in 1846 under Johann Georg Ramsauer's direction.

The exhibition displays Bronze Age tools, Roman artifacts, and Iron Age ornaments that document the evolution of salt production methods through generations.

The museum maintains regular visiting hours, accepts credit cards for admission fees, and provides multilingual information panels throughout the exhibition spaces.

The collection includes the Protokoll, a detailed record documenting 980 burials and 19,500 grave goods, which established new standards in archaeological documentation.
