Came here as a day trip from Zurich. This little place is absolutely gorgeous. You can go across the old stone bridge to the opposite side too. The drive up to this spot was really scenic too. Recommended.

Abbaye de Saint-Maurice d'Agaune

Le parcours de visite est basé sur la lumière et l’image, symboles de la connaissance et de la foi. Il raconte une histoire exceptionnelle: celle d’une communauté religieuse vivante, miraculeusement préservée et constituant le témoignage unique d’une activité spirituelle et culturelle sans équivalent dans le monde occidental chrétien. Consciente de l’importance mondiale de son patrimoine historique et culturel, l’Abbaye de Saint-Maurice a décidé de l’ouvrir au public à l’occasion de son Jubilé. La visite de son Site culturel et patrimonial débute dans la basilique qui date du 17e siècle. Vous parcourez ensuite le site archéologique des anciennes églises – aussi appelé site du Martolet – qui résulte de dix années de fouilles. Enfin, vous traversez les catacombes avant de découvrir le Trésor abbatial.

This picturesque cemetery, much of which dates back to the 17th century, provides a secluded spot to escape the bustle of the rest of the city.

Kapuzinerberg

Reviewed By GroverR - Pensacola, United States

Salzburg has so many great features. This includes a mountain the is directly in the middle of the city on the North and East side of the Salzach River. We climbed the mountain for the incredible views it had of the city and fortress. There are so many things to do in Salzburg, but do not miss the views from this mountain top.
