"Out of Reach of The Sound of Music " a Salzburg Travel Page by SapineKuu

Contrary to popular belief there is so much more to Salzburg than Mozart and the Sound of Music. For instance the Museum Der Moderne is an absolute delight. This fantastic building by the wonderfully named Fried Rich Hoff Zwink is a triumph of design and functionality. Commanding a great location overlooking the city it contains an eclectic mix of art, photography and sculpture. Remember those Gustav Klimpt paintings you had as a student? well check out the originals! Smile and wonder at the enigmatic sculptures of Stephan Balkenhol. Finish off by dining al fresco at the super M32 restaurant. Top tips: utilise the museum locker facilities and go for a walk in the surrounding woodland or follow the linked path to the Hohensalzburg Fortress. Buy the art package ticket for 11 Euro this includes use of the lift, entry to the museum and a breakfast or lunch snack (see restaurant tips)
