Luxury of freedom

Getreidegasse

The Salzburger Getreidegasse (with Hagenauerplatz and Badergäßchen) is located in the Old Town and is probably Salzburg's most famous historic street. Among other things, it houses the birthplace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The high narrow rows of houses with numerous wrought-iron guild signs over the old sales stores, together with the many-round through-buildings and courtyards, convey a self-contained image of a mediaeval street.

The Getreidegasse has long been a busy shopping street and is part of today's pedestrian zone. It runs parallel to the Salzach in a north-west-southeast direction and runs from the Karajanplatz and the Gstättengasse in the north-west to the Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse or the Kranzlmarkt and the Rathausplatz in the southeast. The lengthening of the Getreidegasse forms Judengasse.
