Klemm, Gustav Friedrich 1802-1867 creator text utu 2025 monographic de 1 online resource : multiple file formats "Ferienreise nach Linz, Salzburg, Kloster Göttweig und Wien" by Klemm is a travelogue written in the mid-19th century. It follows a learned traveler on a holiday journey—often in company with his son—through Bohemia and Austria, observing landscapes, cities, churches, museums, customs, and the emerging world of rail and steam. Blending lively scene-setting with historical and cultural commentary, it offers an appreciative portrait of Austria’s geography, heritage, and civic life, framed by a visit to a major agricultural and forestry assembly in Salzburg. The opening of the work sets the tone with a preface praising Austria’s strategic geography, ancient civilization, and cultural significance, then moves into a rain-soaked departure from Dresden toward Prague, border formalities at Bodenbach, and brisk first impressions of the Bohemian countryside and the city’s monuments. A night ride by post coach brings the narrator to Budweis, whose market, arcaded streets, and famed brewery precede a memorable journey on the horse-drawn railway to Linz, then onward to Gmunden, the Traunsee by steamer, and Ischl by coach. From there, a hired carriage carries him over the lake district via St. Wolfgang, St. Gilgen, and the Fuschlsee to Salzburg, where he registers for the assembly, sights the Dom, Residenz fountain, Mozart statue, and Horse Pond, and battles persistent rain. The narrative lingers on St. Peter’s abbey church and cemetery, the convivial Stiftskeller, sessions led by an archduke, a damp walk on the Capuchinberg, and a cordial evening audience. Further visits include St. Peter’s library with illuminated manuscripts, St. Sebastian’s church and Paracelsus’s grave, a small display of Roman finds at Birgelstein, and the city museum’s rich collections—highlighted by a striking pre-Roman bronze helmet—before turning to the ambitious Mönchsberg tunnel, where the excerpt breaks off.
