Breaking The Rules: Salzburg #1
Last Saturday I day-tripped to Salzburg, the fourth-largest city in Austria and the native town of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The city is overlooked by the Hohensalzburg Fortress, one of the largest existing 11th century fortress complexes in Europe. The fortifications were built to protect the prince bishops and the principality itself from attack. However, the fortress never faced a real siege.
It's beautiful! I will be visiting Salzburg this summer and I am really looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteThe fortress looks amazing with that mountain backdrop!
