"✏️Salzburg Cathedral is a Baroque cathedral built in the 17th century, dedicated to Saint Rupert and Saint Vergilius.
The cathedral was destroyed by a number of fires, then rebuilt and expanded. The years displayed on the wrought-iron gates – 774, 1628 and 1959 – recall the three occasions the cathedral was consecrated.
In the cathedral, Mozart was baptized a day after his birth in 1756 and later in his life performed there.
