The Sound of Music

Many U.S. visitors associate Salzburg with The Sound of Music (though don’t be surprised if locals either have not heard of the film or loathe it as many still feel it Disney-fies their town). For fans, many of the film’s most iconic locations can be visited in Salzburg and environs, including the Mirabell Castle and gardens, the pavilion of the Hellbrunn Castle (of “Sixteen Going on Seventeen” fame) and the Felsenreitschule and its festival halls where Georg von Trapp performs “Edelweiss” in the movie. The Villa Trapp was even refurbished and opened as a hotel in 2008.
