Salzburg Cathedral

"✏️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. 🕘Opening hours: ▪️Cathedral: - January, February: Monday-Saturday 8 am-5 pm, Sunday & public holiday 1 pm-5 pm - March-July: Monday-Saturday 8 am-6 pm, Sunday & public holiday 1 pm-6 pm - August: Monday-Saturday 8 am-7 pm, Sunday & public holiday 1 pm-7 pm Festival season: modified opening hours on days of "Jedermann" rehearsal/performance in dry weather! - September-October: Monday-Saturday 8 am-6 pm, Sunday & public holiday 1 pm-6 pm - November: Monday-Saturday 8 am-5 pm, Sunday & public holiday 1 pm-5 pm - December: Monday-Saturday 8 am-6 pm, Sunday & public holiday 1 pm-6 pm No visits during mass and Music at lunchtime.

"Of its numerous churches, the cathedral is Salzburg's most important sacred building. With its mighty dome and two towers, it leaves its own distinctive, and absolutely impressive stamp on the city skyline. A closer look at the cathedral reveals many surprising and exciting details."

"Personally, I always make it a point to visit the main cathedral of any city I’m exploring. Salzburg’s cathedral might not be as distinct or stunning on the inside, but its exterior is quite unique, towering above the other buildings in the city center!"
