Salzburg, Austria

I added a day prior to a Munich business trip in 2014 and made an overnight journey to Salzburg, Austria. Below a few pictures from my afternoon and morning there. Pictures include a subsequent return in 2016.

The View of Salzburg, with the Hohensalzburg Fortress above (begun in 1077 AD, expanded around 1500 AD).

Walking up to the fortress gives a view of Salzburg, below.

The Salzburg Cathedral, completed 1655, during service. The place of his baptismal, Mozart played the Cathedral's organ. The church periodically holds mass accompanied with Mozart's Requiem composition.
