Gmunden straddles the Traun River as it leaves Traunsee in Upper Austria, and its waters once carried salt from the Salzkammergut toward markets farther north. The town sits beneath the Traunstein massif, while the lakefront leads toward Schloss Ort, a castle set on a small island and linked to shore by a wooden bridge. Gmunden is also associated with Gmundner Keramik, the local pottery tradition recognised for its green-and-white flame decoration. Its promenade, historic centre and lake steamer connections give the town a distinctly lakeside rhythm. Browse additional webcams from the Traunsee area to extend your view of Upper Austria.
