"Sunny" Salzburg ~ taken from our hotel room |
The Salzbug Cathedral ~ 1628 ~ Italian Baroque |
There are 5 organs is this clean and white interior. The decorative color is orange 'n rust. Unusual ! Soaring dome/230 ft high , with exceptional stucco work thru out. |
This attached convent is where "Maria" would have lived... when she became governess for the Von Trapp children. |
The nearby cemetery is most unusual. Can be seen below @ bottom of pic = appears as narrow shed along the cliff walls. Unusual grave markers. |
We took the funicular up to see the fortress built 1077. This is looking down on the Cathedral / right. Other churches close by. |
Mirabell Gardens, with that fortress, in background. |
