Hohensalzburg Fortress, Salzburg, Austria
The Festung Hohensalzburg, or Hohensalzburg Fortress as it is known in English, is a formidable Salzburg attraction. You can’t miss this large castle in Salzburg, as it graces Festungsberg Hill, which overlooks the city. It makes for quite the icon on the horizon, and you might be interested to know that the Hohensalzburg Fortress is the largest preserved fortress in all of central Europe. In other words, it’s worth checking out when enjoying a Salzburg visit
