Best walking tour in Salzburg
The best walking tour in Salzburg starts at Hohensalzburg Fortress, a must-see place in the city. The Hohensalzburg Fortress is the first monument you will visit once you arrive in Salzburg. This building is the symbol of Salzburg. Built in the 11th century it is today the largest and best-kept medieval fortress in Europe. It is also the most visited Austrian monument outside Vienna
This Fortress building is very famous for various reasons. The first is the splendid panorama of Salzburg, which you can admire from the fortress. From here you will see both the old part of the city, dating back to the Middle Ages, and the new one. The second reason is the presence of three museums (Fortress Museum, Old Armory, and Museum of the Rainer Regiment).
After the Second World War, Salzburg became more and more a popular destination for tourists worldwide. For this reason, over the years, many restorations have made it so impeccable today. Over the centuries it became a luxurious representative palace, with amazing royal rooms. This very important fortress reflects the ambition and authority of a whole city.
Hellbrunn: the most famous fountains
Then you’ll move to visit Hellbrunn. You’ll be amazed by its beauty!
Today Hellbrunn is one of the most beautiful Renaissance palaces north of the Alps. It is located south of the Old Town and is well-connected to the center of Salzburg. Markus Sittikus von Hohenems was elected bishop of Salzburg in 1612. He immediately wanted a suburban villa built following the example of the Italian ones. Hellbrunn Castle was always used as a place for important ceremonies and events.
Thanks to the mountain of Hellbrunn and its water resources, water is an important element for the architectural idea of the complex. The best parts of this place are the famous fountains of Hellbrun. They are very loved and known all over the world. Here you’ll see various jokes, sculptures, and decorated statues.
Mirabell Castle
For a great experience, you’ll move to the amazing Mirabell Castle.
Mirabell Castle is the most important and the most beautiful of all of Salizburg’s Castles. It’s a baroque palace that a fire destroyed during the nineteenth century. For this reason, it had to be rebuilt from scratch. In 1866 the castle was sold to Salzburg, and the garden became a public park you can visit. Today the building is the seat of the municipal administration and the national library.
Mirabell Castle is a sought-after wedding location, thanks to the beauty of its interiors and its elegance. Among the main halls, we find the Marble Hall, known as one of the most beautiful wedding halls in the world. Here also take place concerts, meetings, and events.
Salzburg Cathedral
Then it’s the turn of probably the most important attraction in Salzburg.The Salzburg Cathedral is the city’s largest and most important religious building. Its splendid facade and majestic dome represent the Salzburg archbishops’ political and economic power.
Today it is the location of important events and ceremonies. Here every year the famous performance of “Jedermann” takes place, that is the advent song during the Christmas period. This event is very characteristic and perfectly embodies the Christmas spirit. Inside the cathedral, you will see the baptismal font where Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was baptized and the beautiful major organ. If you love classical music, you can’t miss it! Mozart was born and lived here. In every corner of the city, you can breathe his music.
The walking tour ends here! Hope you’ll enjoy this wonderful city.
