Traunseebahn Gmunden-Vorchdorf

Art project "Kunst erFAHRen" on board of the Traunseetram as part of the European Capital of Culture Bad Ischl and the Salzkammergut 2024

The Traunseetram, both an inner-city means of transport and a regional railway, connects people with cultural capital locations, history, tradition and modernity. Passengers experience sustainable art (installations) at stops and thus experience visions of energy and mobility.

Traunseetram art space

The 3 Traunseetram stops Klosterplatz, Bahnhof Engelhof and Karl z' Neuhub are declared artistic experimental areas and designed by art students. Art objects from the youth project "For the world I want to live in" will be displayed at a further 7 stops. The art installation "Zaungäste" connects Energie AG and Stern & Hafferl at the tram depot in Gmunden - the two companies have a long history together.
