Description
Just below the grandiose Dachstein Massif is the picturesque high Alpine plateau of Ramsau, home of the famous Schladming Loden. Our earliest records date from 1434.
he Lodenwalke remained unaltered right up to the middle of the eighteen hundreds, when the first carding machines were purchased. These were brought 150 kilometres by cart from Leoben, no easy task in those days. Later, in 1860, Johann Walcher purchased the first spinning machines. Some time later his son Zacharias imported knitting machines from Germany and developed the thick walked (filled) wool socks that have become one of our most sought after products.
