home :: sights & stuff :: what to do :: Salzburg Cathedral

Since its consecration in 774 A.D. the cathedral of Salzburg has been on the same grounds.
Although, the cathedral had to be rebuilt persistently in the past 1.300 years,
so in the year 1181,
and after a great fire in 1598 and
after the cathedral was partly destroyed by bombs in 1944.

Still, the cathedral is a great example of the wealth, power and sense for arts of the 17. centurys archbishops. They hired famous Italian architects in order to plan the cathedral (after the great fire) and its surrounding squares.

On this note, it is the ensemble of fountains, squares and the cathedral, which makes the area around the cathedral so special.
