What travelers are saying
- Travel with SeanMadison, WI265 contributionsOverall, walking to Hohensalzburg Fortress offers a delightful blend of exercise, sightseeing, and cultural immersion; but a funicular railway to the fortress is available for a fee. The fortress was built to protect the prince archbishops and the principality itself from attack. Actually, the prince archbishops never faced any danger, and most of the time they lived in the palace in the heart of Salzburg, known as the ‘Residenz’. The Fortress Church, situated within the walls of Hohensalzburg Fortress, is dedicated to St. George and was most recently reconstructed in 1502.Written May 5, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Valerie RBelfast, UK752 contributionsWe loved the old city - easy to get to and we agreed it was an enjoyable place to explore.Cobbled streets,
pretty restaurants and for any Sound of Music fan it’s a must see destination 😀Written April 27, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It was built in 1608 for the Prince Archbishop and his mistress so that he could avoid walking through downtown because he had some health problems. It was originally named Schloss Altenau; but later renamed Schloss Mirabell, taking its name from the Italian word for beautiful. The garden was featured in The Sound of Music.Written May 5, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Patti BAlcester, United Kingdom47 contributionsFabulous views from the top of Untersberg... although quite slippy underfoot. We took advice of other reviewers and picked up no 5 bus ... last stop is the cable car station. The cable car is packed but very smooth. A must if you are in Salzburg. Cable cars go every 30 minutes .. on the hour and half hour.Written January 3, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AbamagalPensacola, FL322 contributionsA lovely church in Salzburg, by no means the most ornate church that we’ve visited, but still very beautiful. We attended the organ concert at noon and it was well worth our time. The beautiful old organs sounded great. Definitely get tickets for the 30 minute organ concert when visiting.Written May 6, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Martin D2 contributionsThe water games are unique. Loved them. Take care of your mobile phone (you will get -though not soaking- wet) )and go for the water experience.Written April 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Katrīna KRiga, Latvia217 contributionsThe lower part is accessible and doable for anyone. If you want to climb up, take your most comfy hikinh shoes/boots and equip yourself with water and be ready for quite a steep climb.Written May 6, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Max MBournemouth, UK19 contributionsLong queues but brilliant place, lots to entertain young children, especially if it is a wet day. Would definitely recommend.Written February 11, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Heather M2 contributionsAn amazing visit with Max as an excellent guide. Wrap up warm as it’s obviously cold but lots of steps take you a mile inside. High recommended.
Also worth treating yourself to coffee and strudel at the top of the gondola. Best coffee we’ve had on our travels was here!Written September 24, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Great audio tour and the water features were wonderful to watch. We got there at 10.30am and it wasn't too busy. If you want to get soaked you can, but for most you get a tiny spray of water on you. Took advantage of it being such a nice day to wander around the gardens and to view the pavilion from The Sound of Music and had a cooling drink in the cafe. We didn't bother going into the Schloss as our main purpose of visiting was to view the water features. I would strongly recommend.Written June 21, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- AttitudeAdjusterGillingham, UK1,024 contributionsEasy to find cemetary next to the funicular station. Lovely to wander around the graves, sadly I was there New Year's Day so the catacombs were closed but it's well worth a visit.Written January 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
