Blaa Alm This somewhat unusual name has to do with ore smelting and ore extraction. As early as the 13th century, a record mentions that there were galena and copper deposits in the area of this alpine pasture. At that time, the lead and copper ores were melted on site from the rock. This was done with the help of primitive "blowing furnaces" in which the temperature could be increased so much by means of "bellows" that the ore flowed from the rock. These medieval "blowing furnaces" were located in the area of the Blaa Alm, which was named after them - formerly spelled Blah Alm. Remains of these ore extraction sites have been found on the Sandling. The "Venice Mandln" (Italian miners) were very successful in detecting ores. Their knowledge of finding and smelting ores brought them great wealth. The Venediger Mandln are known throughout the Alpine region. The Groß Venediger (Great Venice) is named after them in Austria.
