Bask in centuries-old defenses that once safeguarded Salzburg’s medieval core, curving around the UNESCO-listed Altstadt. Constructed during various eras, these walls showcase Romanesque, Gothic, and Baroque influences, offering glimpses at the layered history behind their stones. Notable segments appear along the Mönchsberg, where scenic pathways provide panoramic views of church spires and Hohensalzburg Fortress. For a historical highlight, look for recessed gates and fortified towers that evoke the city’s former might. Photographers can capture evocative angles by strolling the footpaths, while history-lovers unlock stories of strategic expansions and centuries-long battles that shaped Salzburg’s defensive landscape.
