The second Austrian city, located in a unique natural setting, is Salzburg, a Mecca for its history and its beauty. Famous for having seen the birth of Mozart and for its extraordinary music festivals, Salzburg is a melting pot of extremely varied architectural styles. Indeed, the old city is a real artistic jewel which shelters buildings from the Middle-Ages, the Roman era, the Renaissance or the baroque period…all these periods and all these styles seem to have left their imprints in Salzburg. From the church of Mülln, a gothic work of art, located east of the powerful Salzach river, you can enjoy a superb point of view of the city : an authentic architectural festival of monuments, palaces, domes and gardens is then displayed before your eyes. It is also in the historical centre that you will find the city’s main places of interest : Mozart’s house, the palace of Mirabell and its gardens, the Cathedral and the imposing medieval castle of Hohensalzburg … Thanks to such a rich history and culture Salzburg was declared a Unesco World heritage site in 19997. Anytime of year is the right time of year to visit Salzburg because, as the Austrian poet Hermann Bahr says : “Salzburg is forever beautiful and we always think, at the precise moment when you look at her, that she is more beautiful as ever.” Thus any moment is great to study German in Salzburg !
