Salzburg is a city where music, history and art are intertwined in one breath. For museum lovers, this is an ideal place: both chamber collections and large historical expositions are collected here, each of which tells its own vivid and emotional history. Walking through the halls turns into a real journey through centuries and styles, where every showcase and artifact make you stop and think.
The city has unique museum sites: the Salzburg Toy Museum with one of the largest collections in Austria, the cathedral museum with church relics and works of sacred art, Rupertinum - a museum of modern art in the historical district, as well as a museum in the Hohensalzburg fortress with a rich medieval exposition. No less interesting are the puppet theater with a collection of puppet miniatures, the Baroque museum with objects of the era and the open-air museum, which occupies almost 50 hectares and collected more than a hundred ancient buildings. In the vicinity, you should visit the retro car museum in Kaprun, the writer’s house-museum in Gmunden and the local history museum in the former Bachschmiede forge in Waltz – all these places add depth and diversity to the regional routes.
The museum life of Salzburg is dynamic: temporary and imported exhibitions coexist in the permanent halls, and the modern space Rupertinum and the Museum der Moderne regularly host international projects and thematic displays. During the season, you can find exhibitions dedicated to the history of crafts, sacred art and contemporary visual art; many expositions are updated, offering new in-depth routes and curatorial programs. For travelers, this means being able to return to the city over and over again – each visit can reveal a new story and rare exhibits.
Come to Salzburg and include its museums in your travel plan: here each museum route turns into a small discovery. To see the most important things and hear fascinating stories, use the services of private guides - they will help to make a personal route, avoid queues and reveal little-known stories behind windows and facades. Book your tour in advance and make your trip to Salzburg truly memorable.
