Highlights
  • Mirabell Palace and Gardens - Mirabell Palace was built around 1606 by Archbishop Wolf Dietrich for his mistress. The beautiful marble staircase (also known as the angel staircase) - a magnificent staircase leading up to the top - is a great photo opportunity, as is the garden.
  • Mozart Residence (Mozart Wohnhaus) - We will look at the museum from the outside.
  • Makartsteg - This bridge has been renamed and is now called the Marko Feingold bridge (not Makart-brige anymore). You will recognize it immediately, as all the love locks are located there.
  • Getreidegasse - Salzburg’s Getreidegasse is located in the old town and is Salzburg’s most famous and most beautiful historic street (have you already seen any photos?). Among other things, it is home to the birthplace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (we take a look at the house from the outside).
  • Universitatsplatz - This square is one of the central squares in the old town of Salzburg. This is where the regular market takes place, where you can buy the famous Salzburg’s pretzels; you will also find the beautiful baroque university church here.
  • Alter Markt - The square was established in the middle of the 13th century and is very sweet and cozy. And you can also buy the famous Mozartkugel here (handmade, original Mozartkugel are made with nougat, marzipan, pistachios, chocolate and lots of love).
  • Residenzplatz - Here you can marvel at how big Salzburg Cathedral is, how beautiful the square is where The Beatles and Tina Turner once sang.
  • Domplatz Market - Here you can take some photos again. The place is very beautiful!
  • Kapitelplatz - Wow! Here you can see Hohensalzburg Fortress on the mountain: so close and yet so far away. The old fortress will soon be 1,000 years old! No wonder it has become the landmark of the city of Salzburg!
  • St. Peter’s Abbey - Here you will really feel how old and well preserved the city of Salzburg is!
  • Clemens-Holzmeister-Stiege - This is just a bonus for those who can climb the steps and want to see the beautiful city panorama.
