Setting out, Salzkammergut!

Model Region for rural Europe

We establish and strengthen art, culture and creative industries in the Salzkammergut and create international connections between places, organisations and people.

Who we are and what we do

An interdisciplinary team is forming again in 2025 to build the successor organisation to the European Capital of Culture Bad Ischl Salzkammergut 2024 GmbH together with the region, the federal government and the provinces of Upper Austria and Styria.

The legacy of the European Capital of Culture will be carried into the future and the long-term cultural development strategy Kulturvision 2030 of the three LEADER regions REGIS, Traunsteinregion and Ausseerland will be implemented under the title ‘Aufbruch, Salzkammergut!’.

Otelo eGen, based in Vorchdorf, is supporting the ‘Aufbruch, Salzkammergut!’ project in the first phase of establishing a successor organisation to the European Capital of Culture Bad Ischl Salzkammergut 2024.
