Tauerngold Erlebniswelt Kolm Saigurn

Kolm Saigurn at the head of the Rauris valley is the site where medieval and early-modern gold miners worked the Tauern gold deposits, and the Tauerngold Erlebniswelt turns this history into an interactive experience: gold panning in real stream water, mine tours, and exhibitions on the Tauern gold that funded Habsburg power from the 14th through the 18th

Tauerngold Erlebniswelt at Kolm Saigurn is an interactive gold-mining experience at the head of the Rauris valley in the Hohe Tauern mountains, where medieval and early-modern miners extracted the gold that funded Habsburg power for centuries. Gold panning, mine tours, and exhibitions explain the history of one of Central Europe’s most significant gold-producing regions. Open seasonally in summer; check goldsuchen.at for current hours and admission. The valley head location at 1,600 meters requires a car.
