Kehlsteinhaus (Eagle's Nest)...WW II History
by BLewJay
It's amazing that a city, which was home to one of the most famous composers on earth, is so near a place, which once housed the world’s most famous tyrant. Yet with all of that, Eagle's Nest has beauty and charm that shows brightly once you visit
Salzburg seen from Mönchsberg
by globetrott
Mönchsberg is a small hill - and you may walk to the top or take an elevator - the charge is about 2,- € for both ways and from Mönchsberg you will have a great view of the city, see the river Salzach and the castle
Since march 2003 this lift and the terrace are closed, due to reconstruction works ! The way it looked it will NOT be open again before end of 2004 !!!

The Check/Bill
by WrigleyTodd
THE CHECK/BILL: Many restaurants in Salzburg and Europe won't give you a check or bill until you ask for it because it is customary for the locals to sit and talk for a long time; whereas, tourists more likely want to eat quickly and go see more cool stuff. Ask for your check when your done or almost done eating to ensure a quick escape.
