Salzburg City
The baroque city of Salzburg is a magical place for visitors, from its romantic narrow streets and a UNESCO world heritage old city centre to its extensive offering of art and culture. You decide if you want to stay in the city of Salzburg itself or spend your holiday outside of the city in nature.
The atmosphere is particularly idyllic in Salzburg during the Christmas season. From the start of Advent until New Year's Eve, beautiful Christmas markets, traditional Advent singers, balls and traditions fill the city with magic for locals and international guests.
Art, History & Culture
Some of the most notable highlights of Salzburg include the Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Museum, the Salzburg Festival, The Sound of Music tour, and the Hohensalzburg Fortress.
Modern architecture, remarkable artwork, contemporary design, modern festivals, a 600-year-old beer culture, and trendy eateries create the contrasts found in this baroque city with nostalgic flair.
About 4,000 cultural events each year, tradition and customs, diverse gastronomy, numerous shopping options, and plenty of sightseeing make Mozart's city loved by all.
