Famous tunes in a romantic setting

Definitely one of the most beautiful pre-Christmas customs within the UNESCO World Heritage region of Hallstatt Dachstein Salzkammergut is the traditional Christmas Eve ”Turmblasen” (trumpet fanfares) on Hallstatt’s Market Square. Whilst not "from Heaven above", then at least from the 12-meter-high balcony of the "Grünen Baum " lakeside hotel you will hear cherished Christmas Carols - played by the brass section of Hallstatt Saline music. When guests from around the world wish each other "Merry Christmas" and shake hands to the sound of "Silent Night, Holy Night", that is when the Christmas season in the world-famous seaside resort of Hallstatt begins. Let yourself be enchanted and spend a unforgettable festive period during a winter holiday in the Dachstein Salzkammergut holiday region.
