Salzburg Attractions - Things to do

1. Hohensalzburg Fortress
Mönchsberg 34
www.salzburg-burgen.at

What is it? The 11th-century Hohensalzburg Castle stands on a rocky outcrop approximately 394ft (120m) above the city. Although originally built by Archbishop Gebhard to repel attacks from the neighbouring Bavarians, the present-day fortress was largely rebuilt in the early 16th century by Archbishop Leonhard Von Keutschach who added the grand state apartments. Visitors can walk around the courtyard and outskirts of the fortress at no cost unless they take the guided tour around the state apartments. The tour finishes at two small museums (this is optional) that display a selection of weapons, uniforms and armour together with instruments of torture - such as the Schandmasken - which petty criminals had to don as punishment for their crimes. Hours of Operation: Open daily, admission times differ according to month, on average 9am to 6pm. Phone:842 43011

2. St Peter's Abbey
St. Peter Bezirk, Salzburg

What is it? If you only have time to visit one of Salzburg's many churches, make sure its the 9th-century St Peter's Abbey Church (Stiftkirche St Peter), one of Salzburg's most impressive Rococo buildings. The Peterskirche was built at the beginning of the 18th century on the foundations of the former church which was founded in 792. The ornate interior is more impressive than the exterior with high marble pillars and a magnificent frescoed ceiling. The ancient catacombs that were carved into the rock face by the early Christian inhabitants are accessible only through a short guided tour. Hours of Operation: Open daily; 6.30am-7pm (April-September), 6.30am-6pm (October-March) Phone:844 5780
