History
Originally a part of the Duchy of Bavaria, Obertraun became part of the Duchy of Austria during the 12th century. It was occupied several times during the Napoleonic Wars. It has been part of Upper Austria since 1918, and an autonomous town since 1921 (after being part of Hallstatt).
Tourism
In 1895 an "association for beautification of the town and advancement of tourism" was founded, and was the starting point for tourism at Obertraun. The first tourists arrived in the town that summer. In 1947 construction of the Dachstein Cablecar began.
