EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting Mint Tower in Hall, Austria, dating back to around 1935. The medieval tower, known as Munzturm in German, stands proudly as a dodecagonal structure with its distinctive copper roof. It forms an integral part of Burg Hasegg, which served as the mint for silver Thaler coins for an impressive three centuries. Interestingly, these coins are considered the origin of the modern word "dollar". The image is sourced from a book titled "Osterreich - Land Und Volk" (Austria, Land and People), authored by R. Lechner (Wilhelm Muller) and published in Vienna during that era. The photograph beautifully captures the tower's exterior against a picturesque landscape. With its rich history and architectural grandeur, this fortified building has become a popular tourist attraction over time. Visitors are drawn to explore not only the Mint Tower but also the Hall Mint Museum within Hasegg Castle. While we may not know who specifically captured this remarkable shot or how it came into existence before being preserved by The Print Collector under their collection "Heritage Images" one cannot deny its timeless beauty and significance in showcasing Austria's cultural heritage.
