Kirchliche und weltliche Bauten aus vielen Jahrhunderten, an beiden Ufern der Salzach gelegen und von den Stadtbergen umrahmt, bilden das einzigartige Salzburger Welterbe-Ensemble; fast tausend Gebäude mit ihrer Historie vom Mittelalter bis Heute gehören dazu. Hinter den Fassaden dieser Häuser stecken oft erstaunliche Geschichten, die beweisen, dass Tradition höchst lebendig ist - und immer schon in Bewegung war: Das kulturelle Erbe ist zugleich Teil unserer Gegenwart, und der sorgsame Umgang damit prägt unser Selbstverständnis als Stadt. Ich lade Sie herzlich ein, das Salzburger Weltkulturerbe im Heute zu erleben und auf den folgenden Seiten die „Geschichten hinter der Geschichte“ zu entdecken!

    PRESS RELEASE Grandiose excursion experience: Hohensalzburg Fortress From the Archbishop's symbol of power to the city's landmarks More than a million people visited the Hohensalzburg Fortress in 2016: This makes it one of the most visited tourist attractions in Austria. In addition to interesting insights into the architectural history of the medieval fortification, including the modern day fortress, offers a wonderful 360-degree panorama of the new "DomQuartier" in the heart of the old town and in the surrounding mountains. Since 2016, the landmark of Salzburg also has a new attraction: The new Magic Theater takes visitors on a journey through the history of the fortress. Also new: an online ticket that saves cash for visitors to the fortress. A journey through the centuries: The Magic Theater In 2016, the fortress has been enriched with a new highlight: In the lovingly designed Magic Theater, visitors to the state rooms go on a fascinating journey through the history of the building. The elaborately designed Magic Theater with its music, light effects and video installations is a multi-sensory experience that draws children and adults alike into its spell. The History of Fortress Hohensalzburg Construction of the fortress on the Festungsberg in Salzburg began in 1077 under Archbishop Gebhard von Helfenstein. The fortification was built to protect the principality and archbishops from assault; however, the fortress never had to put its de- fensive function to the test. It served to demonstrate the power of the archbishops and was rarely used as a place of refuge The history of the fortification from the Roman castle to its modern-day appearance is described in detail in the new, 100- page Fortress Guide.
