The Grabensee is a lake in the Austrian province of Salzburg . It is located in the far north of the country in the Salzburg-Umgebung district on the border with Upper Austria and, as the smallest of the three Trumer Lakes, is part of the Salzburg Lake District .

Naming

The lake was first mentioned in a document in 1040 under the name Gransse . The name is derived from the old personal name Gramin , which indicates a previous landowner, administrator or holder of fishing rights. The motif for the naming is therefore the same as in the case of the Mondsee and Wolfgangsee lakes in the Salzkammergut (in its earlier name Abersee ) and possibly the nearby Wallersee . The name of Gransdorf goes back to the personal name Gramin , a hamlet on the north bank of the lake, which is likely to have been the home of this person. The linguistic form Grabensee arose over time for reasons of folk etymology .
