Discovery tour, films & photos

Fortress Hohensalzburg is a real eye-catcher high above the baroque towers of the city. As a landmark visible from afar, the castle is an unmistakable part of Salzburg's world-famous skyline. It appears mighty to visitors from afar, while history can be experienced up close behind its thick walls.

A highlight of every visit to the fortress are the Prince's Rooms. They are among the best-preserved secular buildings of the Gothic period and provide an insight into the lives of Salzburg's prince archbishops. But the many hidden nooks and crannies of the fortress are also waiting to be discovered.
