Eispalast

Ramsau am Dachstein, Styria

The Dachstein Ice Palace takes you into a mystical world of ice and snow deep inside the Dachstein Glacier. Marvel at the exhibition - "Explore the Glacier" - six meters under the eternal ice. In this year's exhibition, which was designed together with La Strada Graz and the Universalmuseum Joanneum Graz, visitors follow in the footsteps of the Alpine researcher Friedrich Simony and look with him at the many facets of the glacier. Created in 2007, the Ice Palace amazes with meticulously carved figures, ice columns & a crystal dome. The Ice Palace is located only a three-minute walk from the mountain station of the Dachstein Glacier cable car and is open daily for visitors. To enter the Ice Palace, you must cross the suspension bridge! Dogs are not allowed in the Ice Palace! "Explore the Glacier" The Dachstein Ice Palace – a special natural jewel and also a symbol for the importance of environmental protection and sustainable tourism. In the new exhibition, which was designed together with La Strada Graz and the Universalmuseum Joanneum Graz, visitors follow in the footsteps of the Alpine researcher Friedrich Simony and look with him at the many facets of the glacier. Previous Exhibitions: Up into the Mountains Until early 2023, the Dachstein Ice Palace took visitors "Up into the Mountains". Our Ice Palace team, consisting of Hans Böhmer and Peter Strassegger, together with the sculptor team around Michael Bachnetzer, created a tour through the alpine adventure world. A T-bar lift, a summit cross, a climber, and a mountain biker were meticulously carved into the ice. Of course, the "50 Years of Planai-Hochwurzen Bahnen" anniversary with its own station under this motto could not be missing!
