About "Memorial plaque in the Bad Reichenhall salt mine"

About the artwork

The Alte Saline is located in the centre of Bad Reichenhall at the foot of the Gruttenstein, right next to the brine springs. Salt was extracted from these springs in prehistoric, Roman and medieval times. During the excavation of the foundations, a prehistoric well socket and a flap axe from the Bronze Age were discovered. This is clear evidence of the prehistoric settlers' knowledge of the value of the brine springs. Salt production in the town was subject to constant change over the centuries, whether of political, technical or natural origin. From 1817, it also received brine from the Berchtesgaden salt mine via the brine pipeline built by Georg von Rei-chenbach. The last major turning point for salt production in Bad Reichenhall was the great town fire of 1834, when the salt works, including the administrative buildings, south houses and countless other facilities, were destroyed in one night. Despite the extensive damage, salt production was resumed a few days later in improvised brewing huts. The brine pipeline, which had been in operation since 1619, was the main focus of attention during this time. Just two days after the end of the fire, on 11 November 1834, Reichenhall brine was once again flowing through the wooden dei-cels to the branch salt works in Traunstein and Rosenheim, which subsequently had to bear the main burden of Bavarian salt production.
