Meeting point: Werkskapelle Steyrermühl – just before the ALFA main entrance

Under the title “Und weiter so – Alle Alle! Culture”, the European Capital of Culture Bad Ischl Salzkammergut 2024 and the Bruckner Year will celebrate the end of the cultural year on 30 November. HOT BOX BUILDING will also be taking part and celebrating its last performance.  

The HOT BOX BUILDING has made four stops during the Capital of Culture year. Now it’s time for the last time: the mobile wooden construction, where the traditional Japanese omakase concept meets state-of-the-art sausage stand architecture, will be cooked up one last time!

Now, in a culinary modified formation, various chefs from the region will come together alongside host Philip Rachinger. One chef will take on each of the five bookable slots and create a menu just for the day and occasion!

As part of the Healthy Boy Band and thus co-founder of HOT BOX BUILDING, Philip Rachinger will serve a culinary greeting to the Capital of Culture regions 2025 in addition to his own slot as host of the hosts for each menu.

In order to connect the flavours of the Capital of Culture cities at this last event, to connect the regions with each other! True to the title of the event: We are all culture!

The HOT BOX BUILDING is the result of a cooperation between the trio of the Healthy Boy Band (Philip Rachinger, Lukas Mraz and Felix Schellhorn), the agency friendship.is and Studio Clemens Bauder as part of the Wirtshauslabor Salzkammergut 2024, a project of the European Capital of Culture Bad Ischl Salzkammergut 2024. The mobile wooden construction was realised by the Scharnstein joinery TREWIT.

The post Cinema as a Guest: RADICAL — A CLASS OF ITS OWN appeared first on Salzkammergut 2024.

A carp pond reflects the gray sky. A deep, dark forest absorbs sunlight. An executed person is displayed on a hill. As proof. As a warning. An omen? The deeply religious and highly sensitive Agnes looks at the dead woman with compassion. Even with longing, because she feels a stranger in the world of her husband Wolf. An emotionally cold world full of work and expectations. Agnes withdraws more and more. Her inner prison is becoming ever narrower, her melancholy is becoming ever more overwhelming.

The project managers Christina Burda and Amina Handke, together with Michaela Lackner and the Lederermayerhaus project association, invite you to coffee, cake and conversation as part of the chestnut festival in Unterach.

Museum of Memory

A house becomes a place for exchanging the living history of its surroundings. The history of the Lederermayerhaus dates back to the beginning of the 18th century. Among other things, it was the location of a fishmonger’s and the home of a Lederer trade. It was a farm and a loving cat house, cared for by its last owner.
More about the project at salzkammergut-2024.at

Chronically unwritten

The project invites the people of Unterach to actively participate in the process of creating the new community chronicle.
More about the project at salzkammergut-2024.at

Important information about visiting the museum

Due to its age and building structure the Lederermayerhaus is not barrier-free and not suitable for large gatherings of people – in the event of large crowds or bad weather  there may therefore be waiting times when visiting the opening or other events. We ask for your understanding. Drinks and weather-protected seating in front of the building will be provided.

Please also note that access to the museum room is via an old, unsecured staircase and very low doors. The museum room is located on the first floor.

Public WC facilities are located opposite in the municipal office building.

Excursion #2 with Chief Forester Fritz Wolf and the Almtal Forest School

Forest of the future—playful introduction to the WWW (Wald-Wunder-Welt)
The renaturalisation of forestry, 40 years in the making, can be experienced in the forest with the forester. Drought, storms, heat, bark beetles – climate change is affecting our forests! On this walk through the forest, we observe the soil, shrubs, herbs, small creatures – and the trees. Together we will consider what this forest will look like in 10, 50 or 100 years. What should the forest of the future look like? This will be discussed in detail.
Meeting point: Waldschule Almtal; Scharnstein, Fischerbühel; 10 am.
Duration 2 to 3 hours.

Excursion #3 with hiking guide and herb educator Sabina Haslinger

Off to Alpine paradise!
We hike small Alpine paradises together! On the way through the marvellous landscape, we learn all kinds of interesting and unusual facts about mountains, alpine pastures, forests & plants and can experience nature with all our senses. The fairy-tale & fabulously beautiful nature lets us forget everyday life. We can breathe a sigh of relief and recharge our batteries. A special experience is singing yodelling and juchitzing together. Together we breathe new life into this old alpine culture! 
Meeting point: Pfarrhof, Grünau im Almtal, 10 am.
Duration 2 to 3 hours.

Excursion #4 with geologist Dr. Johannes Weidinger

How was the Almsee formed?
A gigantic natural event took place around the Jagasimmerl, where a once mighty glacier was melting at the end of the late ice age around 15,000 years ago: 500 million cubic metres of Dachstein limestone came loose in the rear Hetzau not far from the Großer Priel (2515 m) and formed a mass that left a trail of devastation stretching for kilometres. Here, at the confluence with the Almtal, this “landslide in the Almtal” split, merged with river sediments out of the valley and formed a bar upstream, creating the Almsee. This lake, which was originally probably more than twice as large as it is today, was filled in with river sediment over the millennia by the alluvial fan of the Weißeneckbach in the Schwarzenbrunn area and significantly reduced in size.
Meeting point: Car park at Jagasimmerl, Grünau im Almtal, 10 am.
Duration 2 to 3 hours.

Excursion #5 with ornithologist Dr Josef Hemetsberger

Flapping and chattering in the Almtal
What did behavioural research mean in the days of Konrad Lorenz and what does it mean today? How and by whom did the flock of greylag geese come to the Almtal? How do you behave when observing wild animals? How and why are birds ringed? We gain access to the specialist knowledge about animal species at the Konrad Lorenz Research Centre (KLF), a scientific institution of the University of Vienna. We explore the way of life, behaviour and special features of the research centre’s model species in a technically sound but comprehensible way and immerse ourselves in part of the Almtal’s history.
Meeting point: Fischerau 11, Grünau im Almtal, 10 am
Duration 2 to 3 hours.
Abschluss – Gastronomy in the Cumberland Wildlife Park

Excursion #6 with forest educator and local historian Wolfgang Rab

To the forest paradise
On our hike in the forest paradise in the Almtal valley, we not only discover the healing powers of trees for us humans and learn how to “breathe deeply” in the forest atmosphere, but also learn lots of useful and interesting facts about the biodiversity of trees, plants and animals. On our expedition, we take a closer look at this diverse habitat and the deciduous trees typical of the nature reserve, as well as prominent conifers. Alder, ash, spruce and mountain pine – to name just a few – will reveal their secrets to us.
Meeting point: Grünau im Almtal, Gasthof Seehaus car park, by the lime tree; 10 am.
Duration 2 to 3 hours.

Excursion #7 with herbalist and water instructor Maria Hageneder

Enjoying nature on the Alm river
We hike leisurely along the Almuferweg trail and walk through it as if we were in a large open-air nature spa. Our hike is always along the alpine pasture or by the alpine lake, where we not only learn about the five elements of Kneipp therapy for a healthy life in theory, but also experience them with body and soul. As we Kneipp through the forest along the beautiful green alpine river, we utilise the forces of nature for our health and well-being. We enjoy water treatments, get moving in a playful way, learn about medicinal herbs and think about a beneficial diet.
Meeting point: Grünau im Almtal; Pfarrhof, 10 am.
