The Salzkammergut is a resort area east of Salzburg, Austria, spanning the federal states of Upper Austria, Salzburg, and Styria. The name Salzkammergut means "estate of the salt chamber" and is so-called because it belonged to the Imperial Salt Chamber, the authority charged with running the precious salt mines in the Habsburg empire.
St. Wolfgang is a holiday town in the Salzkammergut region of Upper Austria, on the north side of Wolfgangsee, at the foot of the Schafberg mountain. During the winter it is a popular skiing holiday destination. Its church, located in the centre of the town, is over 1,000 years old. As of 2004, it has a population of 2,778. St. Wolfgang is the setting of the musical comedy White Horse Inn.
The White Horse Inn is an operetta or musical comedy set in the picturesque Salzkammergut region of Upper Austria. It is about the head waiter of the White Horse Inn in St. Wolfgang who is desperately in love with the owner of the inn, a resolute young woman who at first only has eyes for one of her regular guests. Sometimes classified as an operetta, the show enjoyed huge successes both on Broadway and in the West End (651 performances at the Coliseum starting April 8, 1931) and was filmed several times.
