The city center is full of historic buildings, including the birthplace of composer Mozart. You can also find several elements of “The Sound of Music,” as this classic was filmed here. In addition, the village of Bad Ischl is a must visit. The town is located on a peninsula and was made famous in the 19th century by Emperor Franz Josef. Discover the imperial memories, such as the Kaiserpark or the Kaiservilla!
