SALZBURG SIGHTS & ATTRACTIONS
- What to See & Do

Salzburg is perhaps most famous for its associations with “The Sound of Music” and various day-tour options are available around this theme.

Visitors can also visit the birthplace of the composer Mozart and view artefacts related to his childhood. 17th century Salzburg Cathedral is also a must-see, as is the 11th century fortress of Festung Hohensalzburg, overlooking the city.

The old town is suitably picturesque and home to busy markets, elegant plazas and pretty fountains.
