In the Bundschuh blast furnace museum in Thomatal, interested visitors can learn all about the former pig iron production and the smelting in Bundschuh. Marvel at the listed smelting plant or the preserved plant of a wind heater, which is one of the last exhibits in Europe. The museum is housed in the former blower house and provides an insight into historical mining back to the 16th century. It is interesting for young and old alike to take a closer look at the various equipment that was in use at that time, such as gallery finds, sledges for ore and coal mining and pig iron. Visitors are equally enthusiastic about the mountain smithy and the fascinating minerals from the Lungau region. Visit the entire blast furnace plant with roasting furnaces, parts of the coal ingot, blower house, the actual blast furnace and the staff house and take a look at the life and work of the miners of that time.

Carpe Diem seize the day! A strong area of high pressure will dominate our weather today; together with very dry air masses at higher altitudes, it will significantly reduce the risk of fog. The fog or low stratus that may form in the early morning will dissipate quickly allowing a sunny and dry day.

Once the autumn weather here in the Alps becomes nice, it stays nice! For quite a few days, the sunshine and the mild temperatures will persist.
