    Always a nice place to rest and linger. There is now a table with two bankers under the old portal. The lion still looks threateningly towards Gmunden and guards the border between Ebensee and Gmunden. How many stories are there about this place with its monument...?
    In 1963 the monument fell victim to a bomb attack and was reopened in 1964.

    The track Traunkirchen - Ebensee was the most difficult part of the journey Linz - Ischl, so it is understandable that very early, namely 1835, a plan for an "art road" was worked out. In 1856 the rock between "Stein and Glanzenbichl" (Zwischenstein) was broken through. As in the case of railway construction, workers from the Italian provinces of the monarchy were used to build the Felsenstrasse. Construction of the rock road was the 24th June 1856; The required construction time was five years. Opening on 3.8.1861.
