Film history meets travel experience

The 1965 film made Salzburg world famous. Julie Andrews, in the role of the young Maria, and Christopher Plummer as Georg von Trapp, thrilled millions of viewers.

Filmed on original locations such as the Mirabell Gardens, Nonnberg Monastery or Leopoldskron Palace, “The Sound of Music” was awarded five Oscars and continues to attract visitors from all over the world to the city of Mozart.
