This is a stunning original vintage travel poster promoting Puchberg am Schneeberg in Austria, a charming town located in the southeastern part of Lower Austria.
The artwork beautifully illustrates the village of Puchberg nestled within a picturesque mountain landscape. Prominent in the lower right text is the mention of the Hotel Hochschneeberg: "MIT DER ZAHNRADBAHN AUF DEN - SCHNEEBERG. HOTEL HOCHSCHNEEBERG 1800m".
The poster highlights the historic Schneeberg Railway (Cog Railway), a scenic cog railway offering breathtaking views as it climbs the Schneeberg mountain, leading visitors up to Austria’s highest railway station. Hotel Hochschneeberg, situated at an altitude of 1,800 meters, provides easy access to hiking trails and spectacular alpine views.
This poster is in very good condition and has been mounted on linen for preservation.
