    The graduation tower was built in the middle of the 18th century. The technical monument was once used for salt production and is still fully functional.

      For a small amount you can enter the graduation tower and inhale directly. Sturdy shoes are recommended. You immediately notice the salty air and its effect. The historical brine pumping systems, consisting of a water wheel, artificial rods, brine shaft and graduation tower, are a coherent complex and technical monument, today unique in Europe.

        Blackthorn, which grows on the slopes of the region, is used for the graduation house.
