Salzburg UNESCO world heritage sites

Fortress Hohensalzburg at Moenchsberg 34
Erected at the behest of the Prince-Archbishops of Salzburg with a length of 250 m (820 ft) and a width of 150 m (490 ft), it is one of the largest medieval castles in Europe.

Collegiate Church of Saint Peter at Sankt-Peter-Bezirk 1
It is considered one of the oldest monasteries in the German-speaking area, and in fact the oldest with a continuous history since its foundation in 696.

Franciscan Monastery at Franziskanergasse 5
Architecturally, it consists of two parts: the original Romanesque nave of the basilica and the delicate Late Gothic chancel with star-ribbed vaulting which adjoins it.

Cathedral at Domplatz 1a
In the seventeenth century, the cathedral was completely rebuilt in the Baroque style under Prince-Bishop Wolf Dietrich von Raitenau to its present appearance. Salzburg Cathedral still contains the baptismal font in which composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was baptized.

Residenz Palace at Residenzplatz 9
First mentioned about 1120, for centuries the Prince-Archbishops of Salzburg resided at the Residenz and used the palace to present and represent their political status.

Old Marketplace at Alter Markt
"Alter Markt," the Old Marketplace in Salzburg's historic city center, was already laid out as an urban trading center and marketplace in the 13th century.
