Salzburg Travel—Visiting Altstadt (Old Town)

Salzburg Perfect Day (YouTube link)

The Historic Center of the City of Salzburg, also known as the Altstadt ⭐, is a district of Salzburg, Austria, recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996.[1] It corresponds with the historic city center, situated on the left and right banks of the Salzach river.
Busy Altstadt, the old town, centers on Getreidegasse, a narrow, pedestrian street with shops selling folk costumes and antiques. Mozart’s Birthplace has exhibits on the composer’s early life. The Domquartier includes the domed 1600s Salzburg Cathedral and the baroque Residence, with art by Rembrandt and Rubens. A steep path and a funicular lead to Hohensalzburg Fortress, with several museums and city views.[2]
