Bad Reichenhall

Bad Reichenhall straddles the Saalach River in southeastern Bavaria, where access to Alpine brine shaped it into a long-established spa and salt town. The foothills of the Berchtesgaden Alps rise around the Saalach valley, while Austria lies immediately to the south and east. Salt production remains central to local identity: the Alte Saline, built in the 19th century after a fire destroyed earlier works, preserves the town’s industrial heritage. The 1928 Predigtstuhlbahn climbs from town toward Predigtstuhl mountain, linking the centre with high Alpine terrain.
