Bicentennial of the brine pipeline from Reichenhall to Rosenheim: A Bavarian hydrotechnical project and its scientific and technological background.
A pipeline for the transport of the brine from the Bavarian salt wells at Reichenhall to the newly established saltworks at Rosenheim was constructed between 1807 and 1810. This 79km long pipeline was later complemented by a shorter stretch extending backwards from Reichenhall to the salt mines at Berchtesgaden (completed in 1817).
