The building serves as the base for the character Andreas Marthaler and his team in the series Die Bergretter.
The series is a co-production between the German broadcaster ZDF and the Austrian broadcaster ORF.
Ramsau am Dachstein has seen a significant increase in tourism due to the success of the show since its debut in 2009.
The filming location is a private commercial building, not an actual emergency station.
The production frequently utilizes the surrounding Dachstein mountains to film the series' signature helicopter rescue sequences.
The Bergwachtzentrale in Ramsau am Dachstein serves as the primary exterior filming location for the popular German-Austrian television series Die Bergretter. The building is a working commercial structure situated in the Austrian Alps and is frequently visited by fans seeking to view the setting of the fictional mountain rescue headquarters. The location is not an active emergency response base for the real-life Bergwacht, but rather a site recognized for its role in television history. Visitors can view the iconic wooden exterior and the surrounding landscape that appears prominently in the show's cinematography. It remains an outdoor attraction located within the Ramsau plateau area. The site provides unobstructed views of the Dachstein massif.

Respect the privacy of the property owners as this is not a public museum.
Combine your visit with a hike in the surrounding Ramsau region to take advantage of the mountain scenery.
Check local event calendars for the annual 'Bergretter Fan-Day' which occasionally takes place in the region.
Do not expect to find production sets or actors inside the building, as the interior scenes are filmed in studios elsewhere.
The exterior can be viewed year-round, but access may be limited by snow conditions in winter.
Do not enter the building or private property boundaries; remain on public paths.
