Salzburg Highlights

Salzburg Essentials

Salzburg’s heritage spans from the Baroque architecture of Mirabell Palace and the Holy Trinity Church to the musical legacy of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. This collection features his former residence, the historic Marionette Theatre, and the original confectionery of the Mozartkugel at Fürst. Beyond the Altstadt, the list includes the 17th-century Hellbrunn Castle with its mechanical trick fountains and the modern Hangar-7, which houses historical aircraft. Fans of cinematic history can visit the pavilion from The Sound of Music, while the pedestrian Marko-Feingold-Steg offers central views across the Salzach River.
