Upon arrival at the top of the hill, experience a unique view over the Archbishop's city and the breathtaking landscape of Salzburg's mountains. Soak up the scenery, take photos, then continue with your visit to the medieval fortification complex, representing 900 years of building history. During your self-guided visit, explore all different parts of the castle and see why it was unconquered for more than 1000 years.

What people are saying about Hohensalzburg Fortress

Very interesting site. Lots to see and explore. Easy to spend 4 hours at the various exhibits and enjoying the views of the city from the fortress vantage point. We visited in February and would like to come back in the late summer / early autumn.

Very good food, only the soup wasn't hot enough, professional staff and an attractive concert. Attractive way to visit the fortress and spend a nice evening. Recommended.

The overall program with dinner (good quality) was very nice, the quality of the musical performance in the Coat of Arms Hall was excellent.

Very nice reception. Enjoy your meal. Great ambiance. Outstanding concert. My wife and I really enjoyed the evening.

Nice visit. Very well kept building. The descriptions of the rooms and objects are many and clear
