hohensalzburg fortress, salzburg
Posted on Sun., November 11th, 2007, 7:07 PM
The Festung Hohensalzburg (Hohensalzburg Fortress) was first built by Prince Archbishop Eberhard in 1077. Initially, this was little more than a bailey with a wooden wall, serving mostly for the protection of Imperial troops of the Holy Roman Empire. The Fortress that stands today is the result of many phases of redesign.
The climb up to the top is extremely steep, and was extra difficult for us because of the wind storm we encountered that day… Gemma had a hard time staying on the ground.
