About

Hofstallgasse is by no means striking for its massive size or intricate architecture, but it still stands out as a unique spot in Salzburg, one that is simply impossible to confuse with any other. The Grand Festival Hall sprawls royally and casually near the Monk's Mountain, grazing the Hofstallgasse cobblestones and drawing all the attention of locals and tourists alike with its incredible acoustics and five bronze gates. Symbolic fountains, tapestries, busts, and theater boxes adorned with paintings by Austrian artists create a truly pompous style, while the festival hall itself hosts concerts and celebrations year-round, organizing Easter festivals and special weeks dedicated to Mozart.
