We were lucky to have one night in Salzburg and managed to stay at the hostel Stadtalm Naturefreundehaus, on the Moenchsberg mountain above the city.
The window of our room, below, shows the Festung Hohensalzburg in the distance.
Salzburg was below us.
The Festung fort beckoned after dinner.
The Hohensalzburg Fortress is one of the largest and best preserved castles in Europe.
Despite being the seat of the prince archbishops of Salzburg, it is extremely heavily fortified and prepared for war.
