Welcome
Welcome to Salzburg!
The UNESCO World Heritage City of Salzburg has deep-rooted, vibrant traditions. It is a small, world-class town with an excellent reputation for superlative musical and cultural events.The legacy of the Prince-Archbishopric is manifested in the culture and in the churches of the Old Town, while contemporary trends and art open up the apparent classical, conservative façade. Where the prince-archbishops once demonstrated their power and magnificence, there are now bustling markets and century-old traditional shops. There is a feast for the eye – from the hand-forged iron guild signs in the Getreidegasse to the displays of international brands and charming passageways in the Old Town. It becomes clear why in 1997 UNESCO awarded the ensemble of church towers, hills, and fortress the title of World Heritage Site.
Mozart was a native Salzburger; when he was born, Salzburg was a prince-archbishopric, an ecclesiastical city-state of the Holy Roman Empire.
Mozart Week
The Mozart Week '25 invites you on a captivating journey through time, from Renaissance composers to Mozart and beyond. The theme "Destination Mozart" connects Mozart with the masters who inspired him, like Monteverdi, Bach, and Handel. As Rolando Villazón explains, "Geniuses synthesize the brilliance of the past, shaping new paths and creations." Experience the magic of these musical architects and explore the undeniable influence of Bach on Mozart’s work, with highlights like Monteverdi’s L'Orfeo bringing the past and present together on stage.

Restaurants
Gasthof Goldgasse
For head chef Dragan Miljkovic and sous-chef Nico Wlodraczak, it’s high-quality, seasonal, and regional products that count, and this approach has served them well: The restaurant is the proud owner of a Gaul-Millau toque. How about some Bad Aussee fish soup? Baroque-style ravioli with roast veggies? Chateaubriand steak? Crispy fried chicken? Grilled pikeperch? These and many more delicacies of excellent quality are served in the cozy Gasthof Goldgasse restaurant with its vaulted ceilings. Service staff headed by Niko Collini are attentive yet unobtrusive and will familiarise you with their fine selection of wines.

In the shady guest garden, between olive and citrus trees, you can enjoy Austrian classics such as fried chicken, boiled hamburger, or the legendary veal liver, but also borrowings from northern Italy in the form of vegetable dishes that vary depending on the season. The Austrian dessert tradition is upheld in the form of semolina pancakes and curd cheese dumplings. Fine homemade ice cream and sorbets round off the menu.
