The woodpassage, a walk-in installation made of wood, can be seen from 12/09 to 03/11/24 not far from the car park at Seegasthof Almsee. The passage conveys the transformation from tree to house with simple pictogrammatic signs in 40 steps. The woodpassage project as part of the Capital of Culture 2024 is supported by the cooperation platform Forst Holz Papier and funded by the Austrian Waldfonds Forest Fund.
