Loved the well appointed state rooms. Enjoyed posing in that era’s clothes and taking pictures Hubert Sattler exhibition in the gallery was amazing The cathedral museum was also nice. Overall 2.5 hours well spent. Must visit when in Salzburg. It’s included in Salzburg card also.

It is the palace of past archbishops, and they say there are 180 rooms here and its internal social rooms include the priests' bedrooms, the ambassador's room, and a library. In the galleries, there are many paintings by Rembrandt, Rubens or so. What was fun is that we can have the chance to be the hero ro heroine of the paintings in some rooms by changing clothes and wearing wig. You can enter free of charge when you bring Salzburg card and it is worth.

You get to see several things in one tour. It is very cool to be in the same room as Mozart started his career as a 6 year old boy. The tour fits for both adults and children. Where the children also can dress up as in the 18th century.

Beautiful palace in classic Rococo style located in the middle of the Altstadt. For centuries this has been the residence of the Prince-Archbishops of Salzburg. It was the place where they discussed politics, lived, hosted events, dinner parties and via which they could easily enter the Dom next to it.

Such wonderful employees at this museum! A huge thanks to Herr Wieser who saw that I stumbled into the gallery with so little time to spare before closing, and so kindly helped me get the most out of my time by indicating all the highlights. His insistence that I saw the balcony before I left gave me the highlight of my day! This was so generous and pinnacle of what a museum caretaker can be. The Residenz is lucky to have him.
