Wimm is a place in the Pongau Salzach Valley , Salzburg State, as is the cadastral municipality of the Werfen municipality in the Sankt Johann (Pongau) district .

geography

Wimm is located about 16 km north of St. Johann im Pongau and 2 km north of Werfen . It is located in the Tenneck valley widening, at the foot of the Tennengebirge on the right of the Salzach . The location also includes the Arthof and Blientau north, around 25 addresses.

The cadastral municipality of Sulzau is more extensive and extends to the eastern and northern municipal boundaries in the Tennengebirge and towards Pass Lueg . It covers 1,582.63  hectares , including the Sulzau and Stegenwald locations , as well as the Eisriesenwelt rest hut and the Dr. Friedrich Oedl House on the Achselkogel. This includes almost 50 buildings with around 120 residents.

There are contradicting official information on the allocation to a locality : Statistics Austria gives the locality Wimm ( Occ.  14072) approximately to the extent of the cadastral community (without the village Sulzau). The state geographic information system SAGIS gives the village Wimm for the place Tenneck (with Sulzerberg ), and the entire KG Wimm counted for the locality Scharten .

History, infrastructure and sights

Originally, the location of Wimm , twisted from Middle High German  widem (for dedication ), was a property or farmstead donated to the parish church, in today's Landl on the other side of the valley (farmsteads Ober-, Mitter-, Unter-, Großwimm ). Around 1830 only the Loipfar homestead was run here, further to the north the Gundaker homestead , which already belongs to Arthof . In the course of time, the name may have passed to the entire Tennecker Talung, but on the left of the Salzach it was increasingly replaced by the name Sulzau . Through the creation of the tax communities (forerunners of the cadastral communities) in the 1820s, the growth of the Konkordia hut and the creation of the place name Tenneck in 1939, the place name Wimm came here.

The Kaiserin-Elisabeth-Bahn (Salzburg-Tiroler-Bahn) was built in the 1870s .

The Tauern Autobahn A 10 runs right through the village. The tunnel in the Werfen construction lot (km 34.2–42.3) was built in 1974–1976, and the line opened on October 25, 1977. Here is the north portal of the Zetzenberg tunnel through the Zetzenbergkogel  ( 740  m above sea level ).

Tenneck train station

The Tenneck train station of the Westbahn (actually Salzburg-Tiroler-Bahn ) is located on the Salzach, and Tenneck is directly on the other side of the Salzach and can be reached via a bridge.

The stop in Wimm was still called Konkordiahütte until September 26, 1971 , after the Sulzau-Werfen ironworks .

The S3 line of the Salzburg S-Bahn stops here, in some cases also REX courses of the ÖBB, which are integrated into the Salzburg Transport Association  (SVV).

Eisriesenwelt and nature conservation

The Eisriesenwelt is the largest known ice cave in the world. You can reach it from Werfen on the street, from the Tenneck train station in Wimm a hiking trail leads up to the Schröckenberg inn and then on to the Eisriesenwelt rest hut , from where you can also take the cable car to the entrance of the cave.

All the high-lying parts of the Tennen mountains are part of the nature reserve Tennengebirge , all other areas of the cadastral above the highway are in the conservation area Tennengebirge mitausgewiesen which is a kind of buffer zone.
