| Panoramic view of the old town of
Salzburg,
Austria over the River
Salzach as viewed from the Festung or Hohensalzburg Fortress. The birthplace of
Mozart, Salzburg lies at the northern boundary of the
Alps and was the setting for the film
The Sound of Music, which was based on the life of Salzburg resident
Maria von Trapp. The city has a long history, with traces of human settlements dating back to the
Neolithic Age. Today, it is a popular tourist spot, especially for
skiers in the winter.
