The giant trumpet was one of the few roadside oddities found thus far in Austria. The trumpet was made by Yamaha, though not sure of its significance to the town of Schladming. Many thanks to Richard Weiss for info. Many thanks to Richard Weiss for info. 04-09

Made by Yamaha, the enormous horn looks like a regular trumpet that simply never stopped growing. It is the kind of quirky attraction normally found beside an American highway, which makes it even more fun against the Austrian alpine scenery.

No word on who has the lungs to play it.
