Almkanal of Salzburg

Almkanal of Salzburg
Salzburg, Austria (AT)
The Almkanal is a system of connected canals beneath Salzburg. It’s considered to be one of the oldest tunnel systems in Europe, with the earliest fragments thought to date to sometime during the 700s, though its more extensive construction started in the early 1100s. It was originally made with materials scavenged from nearby Roman ruins.
