We include the steelworks in terms of content in our tour and explain its processes and significance within the overall context. Please note that we do not enter the steelworks directly, as visitor access is currently not permitted there.
Please note that transport (Erzberg, Eisenerz and the wire rolling mill in St. Peter Freienstein) is not included.
Should you require a coach for your group, we can arrange this for you, with the costs being charged directly to you (approx. EUR 200).
