Mozartplatz
Mozart Square and its buildings have close ties to the story of this famous boy genius. The house at No. 8 Mozart Square was where Constanze Mozart-Nissen, Mozart’s wife, once lived. To this day, a plaque installed on the wall of the house reminds us of that time.
Nowadays, Mozart Square is an ideal starting point for city tours, as well as being a popular tourist attraction in its own right in the heart of Salzburg’s Old City.
