Salt devil and tradition: a magical spectacle in Hall near Admont

An exciting event is imminent: On November 30, 2024, the mysterious salt devil will gather in the school yard of the elementary school in Hall near Admont from 7 p.m. This is not just a celebration, but the 35th edition of the traditional Haller salt tea run, which is deeply rooted in the customs of the Ennsstal. The event regularly attracts numerous visitors who can look forward to an impressive spectacle.

The Haller Salt Deafel, which was launched by the home poet Martha Wölger, stand for a child -friendly interpretation of the Krampus run. With hand -carved masks and without rods, they ensure fascination and fright every year. They tell stories from past times when dark salt tunnels and former wealth merge with the patron saint of St. Nicholas. Despite the loud and scary spectacle, the children have nothing to fear; The salt devils are happy about the little ones and like to pose for photos. Finally, the children get a Santa Claus bag.
