Today known as a charming spa town in the Styrian Salzkammergut, Bad Aussee has a rich and fascinating history closely linked to salt mining and the development of the Ausseerland region.
The area was already settled during Roman times, as evidenced by coin finds and archaeological traces.
The first documented mention of the town dates back to 1246 under the name “Awse”. The name likely derives from the Slavic word for “mouth” – fitting for its location at the confluence of the Traun source rivers.
As early as the 13th century, the salt mine near Altaussee was in operation, and the saltworks in Aussee made the town an economic center.
The region was part of the so-called “Kammergut” – direct property of the emperor.
In the 14th century, Aussee developed into a market town with its own Kammerhof, which served as the administrative seat for salt and forestry.
From the 16th century onward, the Reformation and Counter-Reformation shaped religious life.
In the 19th century, Bad Aussee gained wider recognition through the marriage of Archduke Johann to Anna Plochl, the local postmaster’s daughter – a symbol of the union between nobility and commoners.
In 1868, Aussee was officially declared a spa town, and in 1911 it received the title “Bad”. The opening of the Salzkammergut railway in 1877 boosted tourism and made the region a popular summer retreat for artists and intellectuals.
Bad Aussee was officially granted city status on January 1, 1994 – becoming Austria’s 175th city.
