home :: sights & stuff :: what to do :: Mirabell Palace

It was in the 18th century, when architect Lukas von Hildebrandt created, under the rule of archbishop Franz Anton von Harrach, the chateau Mirabell and its gardens. Today they are considered as an outstanding example of baroque architectural style.

Today, classical concerts are performed in the chateau, its other rooms are used by Salzburgs adminstrative department and are not open to the public (instead of an archbishop, the mayor of Salzburg resides in Mirabell today - that`s how the times have changed, or have not:).

Although, the gardens around the chateau are open to the public and you can see a rather quaint collection of baroque dwarf statues! , a museum of baroque art, a childrens playground, some fountains and many park benches to sit and bath in the sun (if you are lucky and it shines).
