From the spectacular Salzburg Cathedral to the bustling Old Town, we explore the landmark attractions of Salzburg.
Salzburg Cathedral
Of the city’s numerous churches, Salzburg Cathedral is the most important sacred building. With its mighty dome and two towers, the cathedral leaves a distinctive and impressive stamp on the Salzburg skyline. There is much to discover here – the baptismal font, the crypt, the ‘Vanitas’ art installation, or the reliquary shrine containing the bones of Saints Rupert and Virgil.
Getreidegasse
The bustling heart of Salzburg’s Old Town has unmistakable charm. Houses in the Getreidegasse are characterised by their beautiful doorways and windows that become steadily smaller from the first floor up. Mozart’s Birthplace is a magnet for tourists, but above all, the Getreidegasse draws visitors with its wide selection of international fashion chains, traditional inns, and dining spots.
Hellbrunn Palace
For more than 400 years, visitors have been enchanted and amazed by Hellbrunn Palace and its unique trick fountains – a spectacle beyond compare. Guests might catch a few drops but certainly won’t get drenched! Built in the 17th century, Hellbrunn Palace is a place for celebration, pleasure, and recuperation – just like Prince-Archbishop Markus Sittikus intended.
