Servus in Salzburg

Salzburg is one of Europe's most captivating cities, nestled between the Alps and the banks of the Salzach river. Known as the birthplace of Mozart and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the city effortlessly blends baroque architecture, a vibrant cultural scene, and stunning natural surroundings — all within easy reach of the conference venue.

But Salzburg is more than just sightseeing. The city is famous for its warm hospitality, cosy taverns, and outstanding local cuisine. Whether you are exploring the historic Old Town, taking in the views from Hohensalzburg Fortress, or simply enjoying a cold Stiegl in good company — Salzburg is a city that will leave a lasting impression long after the conference is over.
