Reviewed By DRR105 - Omaha, United States

While my husband and I were on a tour of Salzburg, we had some free time on our own, and were walking towards the funicular which climbs up to the Fortress, when we happened upon St. Peter's Church, Abbey, Cemetery and Catacombs. It was amazing! The self guided tour of the Catacombs was especially enlightening. For those who love history and old architecture and learning about different cultures, don't miss this beautiful hidden treasure of Salzburg.
