The team

Preserving Landmarks

We respect our fortresses, castles and palaces as places of cultural interest that have left their mark on our landscape and history. We guarantee they are managed in an exemplary manner.

The preservation of monuments is one of our most important tasks. To ensure these tasks are implemented to the highest standards, we rely on the expertise and experience of internal and external specialists.

Our fortresses, castles and palaces are assured the highest standards of preservation and care by using both traditional and modern craftsmanship and materials.

Salzburger Burgen und Schlösser and its partners insist the environment is treated in a resource-saving and sustainable way.

Creating experiences

Utmost priority is given to the overall visitor experience, so we insist on the best quality in all areas, whether run by ourselves or our partners.

Participation in communal cultural life is a human right. We aspire to fulfilment of this duty by providing target-group-orientated, barrier-free opportunities for our visitors.

We maintain, use, manage and promote our venues, so everyone can see exactly what we have and what we can do.

The history of our properties goes back almost 1000 years. Our offerings give visitors authentic insights into their histories, the lives of their inhabitants, and of life in the surrounding areas.

Salzburg Burgen & Schlösser is part of a supra-regional network of venues and organisations. We join up with a variety of operations and institutions to participate in joint projects.
