Marvel at the Mirabell Palace and its beautifully landscaped gardens, which together are a Unesco World Heritage Site. Pass the internationally renowned Mozarteum music university and the magnificent Marionette Theatre, which for a century has been producing marionette performances of Mozart’s operas.

Continue to the Markart Square and see the Regional Theatre, the beautiful baroque Trinity Church and Mozart’s Wohnhaus, where Wolfgang Amadeus lived for many years.
