Salzburg's Historic Center: UNESCO World Heritage Site
Only the most outstanding natural and cultural monuments make it onto the UNESCO World Heritage List. In addition to architectural monuments and urban ensembles, the World Heritage also includes cultural landscapes, industrial monuments, and works of art such as petroglyphs. Austria currently has twelve World Heritage sites. By signing the UNESCO Convention of 1993, Austria committed itself to protecting and preserving the World Heritage sites within its borders. The Historic Center of the City of Salzburg has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1996/1997. The historic center, which is worthy of protection, covers 236 hectares and contains approximately 1,000 objects.

The focal point of the bustling old town is the Getreidegasse - a narrow pedestrian street with traditional costume and antique shops. In Mozart's birthplace there are exhibitions on the composer's childhood. The DomQuartier is home to the 17th-century Salzburg Cathedral and Dome and the Baroque Residence with artworks by Rembrandt and Rubens. The Hohensalzburg Fortress with several museums and views of the city can be reached via a steep footpath or by funicular.
