The Capuchin Monastery and Capuchin Church in Salzburg were built in the most prominent location imaginable: on a rocky outcrop of the Kapuzinerberg, named after the monastery, which was originally known as Imberg (and is still called that today). There are two routes leading to the Capuchin Monastery: One is via the Imbergstiege, which begins at Steingasse. This is a romantic, albeit steep, staircase that also leads past the small church of St. Johannes im Berg.

The well-known ten relief depictions that decorate the oak door of the monastery church and were made around 1450 probably come from the old Romanesque cathedral. …”
