Discover the Abbazia di San Pietro Apostolo, a small and ancient abbey nestled at the foot of Hohensalzburg Castle. Surrounded by a meticulously maintained historic cemetery, this hidden gem is a must-visit in the city's historic center.
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the serene atmosphere that evokes a different era. Despite the crowds, especially in summer, the abbey still retains its charm and allure. Explore the abbey's interior, including the fascinating catacombs, which are included in the Salzburg card.
Don't miss the beautiful church, and make sure to visit the cemetery in Austrian style, located right next to the fortress descent. The catacombs, although not carved into the rock, offer a unique and interesting experience as they wind along the mountainside. Keep an eye out for the grave of W. A. Mozart's sister at the entrance of the catacombs.
