The home of Mozart and the Sound of Music is a beautiful historic town in a magnificent Alpine setting. Elegant squares and baroque palaces and churches contrast with quaint courtyards, medieval narrow streets, colourful gardens and markets. Visit the many churches and the impressive cathedral of the ruling Archbishops, whose homes included Europe’s largest intact fortress, the Residenz Palace and Hellbrunn Palace with its water gardens. Follow in Mozart’s footsteps to the concert halls, his birthplace, his home and statue.
