Hallstatt

Hallstatt n (proper noun, genitive Hallstatts or (optionally with an article) Hallstatt)

Hallstatts (genitive)
Hallstatt (genitive with-article)

The second element is Statt (“place, stead”).
Traditionally the first element is taken to be a borrowing from Celtic for ‘salt’, such as Welsh halen or Breton holen; see Proto-Celtic *salanos.
David Stifter rejects the traditional etymology because of several problems, among them:
* the element hall- exists only in names of places settled by Germanic speakers (and nowhere else in the Celtic-speaking areas),
* the *s > *h sound change is not attested in Continental Celtic,
* derivation from the ‘salt’ word would have given a non-geminated final l.
He instead derives it from Proto-Germanic *hallą, from Proto-Indo-European *kHlnom (“hardened skin, encrustation”), referring to encrusted salt forming during the simmering of brine.

/ˈlyːnəˌbʊʁç/

From Middle Low German Lü̂neborch, from an Old Saxon name attested in Latinised form as Luniburc (mid-10th century). The Old Saxon is generally construed as *Hliuniburg, after an identified placename Hliuni that occurs in the annals of Charlemagne (ca. 800). This in turn is usually considered a derivative of hlēo (“hill, burial mound, dam, bastion, shelter”), from Proto-Germanic *hlaiwą. Compare the Westphalian placename Lünen. On the other hand, it seems clear that the similarity to the Polabian name of the town Glain, Glein, Chlein can hardly be coincidental. The Polabian might be from Germanic, but it has also been connected with Proto-Slavic *glina (“clay, loam”).
