International<br />
<strong>Malta</strong> Camp<br />
Salzburg <strong>2017</strong><br />
Austria
Dear participants of the<br />
International <strong>Malta</strong> Camp <strong>2017</strong>,<br />
approximately 2 ½ years and hundreds of hours<br />
of preparing for this year’s camp are behind us.<br />
It has been a busy and exiting time, full of great<br />
ideas, some of which were very unexpected. The<br />
deep-felt inspiration of the <strong>Malta</strong> Camp spirit has<br />
helped us to overcome the various challenges,<br />
thus providing us with much needed energy. Now,<br />
it is our honour and pleasure to welcome you to<br />
Salzburg, in the schools of the Josef-Preis-Allee.<br />
WHY IN SALZBURG?<br />
We have chosen Salzburg because we wanted<br />
you to experience the very unique ambiance of<br />
the city of Salzburg. Salzburg is much more than<br />
simply the city of the “Sound of Music” and of<br />
Mozart.<br />
Firstly, Salzburg is characterized by its long<br />
history. It was the home of famous archbishops<br />
who became rich because of the salt found<br />
around Salzburg. The German word for salt is<br />
Salz; hence, the name Salzburg. Additionally,<br />
Salzburg has a unique geographic position at<br />
the edge of the Alps, with two mountains, the<br />
Gaisberg and the Untersberg, closely neighbouring<br />
the city. We would be amiss not mention<br />
the annual, world-famous Salzburg Festival. The<br />
festival is a traditional classic music festival,<br />
which attracts many famous singers, musicians,<br />
and high society from not only Austria, but from<br />
many other countries as well.<br />
YOU RAISE ME UP!<br />
We have named the week’s motto “You raise me<br />
up!” In our heart-felt opinion, this motto expresses<br />
everything encompassing the Camp. This event<br />
is not only creating an atmosphere of joy and<br />
Stephan<br />
delight, it often is the beginning of great<br />
lifetime friendships, and sometimes even more!<br />
This year’s motto also is an expression of inspiration<br />
on how to overcome cultural differences and<br />
barriers, as well as how to embrace a much<br />
needed peaceful and joyful world. We also want<br />
the camp to have a high energy atmosphere full<br />
of positive emotions for both the guests and<br />
helpers, all of whom, after the camp return<br />
home, until they meet again, one year later... at a<br />
different place, in a different country, however<br />
under the same spirit.<br />
Our team of organizers have prepared a week<br />
full of many exciting activities, workshops and<br />
excursions. We hope you will enjoy your time<br />
here, engaging in the happiness of new and<br />
existing companionships with the many camp<br />

Introduction to the Motto<br />
of this Year‘s <strong>Malta</strong> Camp<br />
We come to this Camp as a large group of<br />
friends and yet each one of us brings our<br />
individual gifts and unique contribution to offer<br />
for this week. Each of us also may carry our own<br />
personal worries and difficulties. Sometimes<br />
these difficulties can hold us back from being the<br />
person we would truly like to be and leave us at<br />
times feeling low. The words of the Camp Song,<br />
YOU RAISE ME UP speak of what it is like to<br />
feel being down, weary, and heart burdened. But<br />
the Song also reminds us of the importance and<br />
beauty of friendship. It is true that troubles and<br />
worry can disturb our happiness and serenity and<br />
make us feel afraid. Sometimes we can be so<br />
close to these troubles that only a sincere friend<br />
will help us see life in true perspective beyond<br />
these fears and so bring us hope. This Camp<br />
Song uses great images, even biblical images, of<br />
the feelings that hope and serenity can bring us:<br />
Standing on a mountain top, walking on stormy<br />
seas, being carried on another’s shoulders. For<br />
me, such a moment of hope in the Gospels is<br />
when the Apostles are caught out on a stormy<br />
sea, Jesus calms the storm, and calls St Peter<br />
to walk to him on the water, Peter is only able to<br />
do this as long as he keeps looking at the face of<br />
Jesus, it is when he feels afraid and looks down<br />
at the water he then begins to sink. Yet, it is at<br />
this moment Jesus lifts him up and tells Peter<br />
not to be afraid for He is with him. In this week<br />
may we not be afraid to acknowledge that for<br />
all of us there can be moments when we feel<br />
low and when we depend on others to raise us<br />
up, it is equally true that each of us, even by a<br />
kind word, have the capacity to offer hope and<br />
reassurance to another who is feeling low or<br />
worried.<br />
Above all let us remember that throughout this<br />
week, and throughout our lives, as with St Peter,<br />
Jesus is always there for us with His hand outstretched<br />
ready to raise us up.<br />

Chaplain for the International Summer Camps<br />

You Raise Me Up<br />
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary<br />
When troubles come and my heart burdened be<br />
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence<br />
Until you come and sit awhile with me.<br />
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains<br />
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas<br />
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders<br />
You raise me up: To more than I can be.<br />
There is no life - no life without its hunger<br />
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly<br />
But when you come and I am filled with wonder<br />
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.<br />
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains<br />
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas<br />
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders<br />
You raise me up: To more than I can be.<br />
You raise me up: to more than I can be ...<br />

So no one told you life was going to be this way.<br />
Your job‘s a joke, you‘re broke, you‘re love life‘s DOA.<br />
It‘s like you‘re always stuck in second gear,<br />
Well, it hasn‘t been your day, your week, your month, or even your year.<br />
But, I‘ll be there for you, when the rain starts to pour.<br />
I‘ll be there for you, like I‘ve been there before.<br />
I‘ll be there for you, cause you‘re there for me too.<br />
You‘re still in bed at ten, the work began at eight.<br />
You‘ve burned your breakfast, so far, things are going great.<br />
Your mother warned you there‘d be days like these,<br />
But she didn‘t tell you when the world has brought you down to your knees.<br />
That, I‘ll be there for you, when the rain starts to pour.<br />
I‘ll be there for you, like I‘ve been there before.<br />
I‘ll be there for you, cause you‘re there for me too.<br />
No one could ever know me, no one could ever see me.<br />
Seems like you‘re the only one who knows what it‘s like to be me.<br />
Someone to face the day with, make it through all the rest with,<br />
Someone I‘ll always laugh with, even at my worst, I‘m best with you.<br />
It‘s like you‘re always stuck in second gear,<br />
Well, it hasn‘t been your day, your week, your month, or even your year.<br />
But, I‘ll be there for you, when the rain starts to pour.<br />
I‘ll be there for you, like I‘ve been there before.<br />
I‘ll be there for you, cause you‘re there for me too.<br />

Salzburg History<br />
Salzburg‘s long history can be traced<br />
back to the stone age - but only in the<br />
Middle Ages and more so in Baroque<br />
times it got really exciting! Here you<br />
will find a timeline with the most outstanding<br />
key events.<br />
The first signs of settlements within today‘s<br />
city limits date as far back as to Neolithic<br />
times. However, the first actual city that<br />
merged smaller Celtic communities was<br />
founded by Romans in 15 BC and named<br />
Iuvavum. After the Roman Empire came to<br />
decay, Iuvavum was abandoned and fell into<br />
ruins.<br />
A monastery is documented from the 5th<br />
century, but it wasn‘t until St. Rupert received<br />
the ruins as a present in 699 AD from the<br />
Duke of Bavaria that the city expanded.<br />
Rupert became the city‘s bishop, launched<br />
St. Peter‘s Abbey and is until today the<br />
patron saint of Salzburg.<br />
The name Salzburg is documented since<br />
755 AD. In 1077, work on the Fortress started.<br />
In 1166 a dispute between the archbishop<br />
of Salzburg and the German Emperor Barbarossa<br />
peaked in a fire that destroyed most<br />
of the city.<br />
During the 14th century about one third of<br />
the population dies through the plague. At<br />
the same time, the province of Salzburg<br />
finally becomes independent from Bavaria<br />
and is an entity within the Holy Roman Empire<br />
of the German Nation.<br />
In 1492 the Stiegl brewery is founded, still<br />
one of Salzburg‘s top-attractions. The same<br />
year, Jews are expelled from the city. Only<br />
a few years later, social unrest and the<br />
preludes of the reformation spark riots<br />
among peasants. Salzburg is occupied<br />
during the Bauerkriege and the Fortress<br />
besieged for three months in 1525, before<br />
the rioters are finally pacified.<br />
During the 17th and 18th century Salzburg<br />
goes through its prime: the Prince Archbishops<br />
Wolf Dietrich von Raitenau, Markus<br />
8
Sittikus and Paris Lodron use the wealth<br />
from the salt trade to transform Salzburg into<br />
one of the world‘s most outstanding baroque<br />
cities with magnificent palaces, churches<br />
and gardens.<br />
In 1756 Salzburg‘s most famous son is born:<br />
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.<br />
After 1803 the Prince Archbishops lose their<br />
secular power in the course of the Napoleonic<br />
wars, and Salzburg becomes part of<br />
different provinces before it is finally finding<br />
its way into the Austrian Empire. There it<br />
remains rather quietly, only slowly recovering<br />
during the 19th century from the French and<br />
Bavarian lootings.<br />
In 1816, Salzburg becomes part of Austria, but<br />
does not recover economically nor culturally<br />
until towards the end of the 19th century.<br />
Slowly the city gets rid of old fortifications<br />
and some new districts arise around the<br />
station, built in neo-Classicist style so typical<br />
for the Austro-Hungarian Empire.<br />
After World War I the Austrian Empire splits.<br />
The Salzburg Festival is founded in 1920.<br />
Salzburg becomes a fashionable place to be<br />
in the summer and attracts wealthy people<br />
and intellectuals from Vienna and Germany,<br />
mostly through the young Salzburg Festival.<br />
However, the First Republic is politically<br />
and economically instable and in 1938 all<br />
of Austria becomes part of Nazi Germany. In<br />
the same year, book burnings are held on<br />
public square Residenzplatz, persecutions<br />
of Jews and other Nazi-victims start.<br />
In November, a synagogue is destroyed.<br />
During World War II, a total of 15 air strikes<br />
destroy 46 percent of the city‘s buildings<br />
especially around the station. Up to the<br />
present day, duds and bombshells are<br />
occasionally found in Salzburg. Watch out<br />
for some of Salzburg‘s not-so-nice neighbourhoods<br />
around the station area: they are<br />
some of the scars of World War II.<br />
After the war Salzburg is occupied by US<br />
troops. Great endeavours of the population as<br />
well as support through the Marshall European<br />
Recovery Program lead to a rapid recovery<br />
of the city after the war. In the<br />
1960ies, the University of Salzburg is reestablished<br />
as a full academic institution.<br />
The city is slowly, but steadily growing and<br />
benefits from its close ties to Germany and<br />
- since the end of communism in Austria‘s<br />
eastern neighbours after 1989 - from its<br />
historic ties with Eastern Europe. In 1995<br />
Austria joins the European Union.<br />
In 1997 the city of Salzburg becomes a<br />
UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site to honour<br />
its unique baroque structure.<br />
Today, Salzburg is the pearl of Austria: rich in<br />
culture, cuisine and natural beauty, but also<br />
prosperous and diverse, it looks into a bright<br />
future.<br />

Building work on Hohensalzburg Fortress<br />
was initiated by Archbishop Gebhard in<br />
1077. It is the largest completely preserved<br />
castle in central Europe.<br />
The fortress is over 900 years old and was<br />
originally built to guarantee the safety of the<br />
archbishops; while also serving as barracks and<br />
a prison. Today’s exterior was designed by Archbishop<br />
Leonhard von Keutschach. Of particular<br />
interest are the fortress museum and the medieval<br />
stately chambers. The interior of the fortress was<br />
furnished to impress with magnificent gothic<br />
carvings, ornamental paintings and frescos, and<br />
decorative gold leaf – all of which attests to the<br />
wealth of the prince bishops.<br />
Nowadays there are museums and a Magical<br />
Theater in the Fortress, where you can make an<br />
interactive journey through the history of Fortress<br />
Hohensalzburg.<br />

Mirabell Garden<br />
Built by princearchbishop<br />
Wolf<br />
Dietrich von Raitenau<br />
in 1606 as a token of<br />
his love for Salome Alt.<br />
In 1854, Emperor Franz<br />
Joseph made Mirabell Gardens<br />
open to the public for the very first<br />
time. To this very day, it remains a gem<br />
of garden architecture and a popular photo motif.<br />
The Schloss Mirabell was built by the famous<br />
baroque architect Lukas von Hildebrandt between<br />
1721 and 1727, turning it into a single harmonious<br />
ensemble. The stairway with its graceful<br />
angel figures, is one of the greatest treasures of<br />
the building.<br />
Today’s Schloss Mirabell houses are the official<br />
offices of the mayor of Salzburg, as well as those<br />
of the city government.<br />
Ein Brunnen singt.<br />
Die Wolken stehn.<br />
Im klaren Blau,<br />
die weißen, zarten.<br />
Bedächtig stille Menschen gehn<br />
Am Abend durch den alten Garten.<br />
Georg Trakl, 1912<br />
The Mirabell Garden<br />
True to the form of an<br />
early-baroque garden, we<br />
find rich floral ornamentation,<br />
precisely trimmed trees,<br />
decorative urns and balustrades.<br />
Subsequent redesigns contributed<br />
the variety provided by late-baroque forms<br />
to the original coherence of the grounds.<br />
Additions included separate new garden areas<br />
with latticed walkways flanked by linden and beech<br />
trees, a hedge theater and the Bastion Garden.<br />
Fountains and vibrant stone figures further<br />
enrich the beauty of the garden.<br />

Wolfgang Amadeus<br />
Mozart<br />
Salzburg’s ‘Wunderkind’ –<br />
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart – was born in<br />
what is known as the ‘Hagenauer House’<br />
at no. 9 Getreidegasse on the 27th January<br />
1756.<br />
He lived there with his sister ‘Nannerl’ and his<br />
parents until 1773. Mozart’s ‘Geburtshaus’ guides<br />
guests through the original rooms in which<br />
the Mozart family lived and presents a range<br />
of artefacts, including historical instruments,<br />
documents, keepsakes and mementos, and<br />
the majority of the portraits painted during his<br />
lifetime. The musical instruments exhibited in<br />
Mozart’s Geburtshaus were passed on from<br />
Mozart’s widow, Constanze<br />
Nissen, through her sons<br />
Carl Thomas and Franz<br />
Xaver Wolfgang, and<br />
are now owned<br />
by the International Mozarteum Foundation.In<br />
1773, after the house in which Wolfgang Amadeus<br />
Mozart had been born became too small, the<br />
entire Mozart family moved across the river to the<br />
‘Tanzmeisterhaus’. The new, more spacious home<br />
provided enough room to entertain friends and<br />
musicians. After the Mozarts’ third trip to Vienna<br />
they arranged to rent rooms in the Tanzmeisterhaus.<br />
On the 16th October 1944 two thirds of the<br />
house were destroyed in an air raid. The owner at<br />
the time sold the bombed section of the building<br />
to Assicurazioni Generali, who then erected an<br />
office building subsequently purchased by the<br />
International Mozarteum Foundation in 1989.<br />

The Cathedral
The Salzburg Cathedral is an imposing<br />
example of monumental architecture<br />
from the days of the Early Baroque.<br />
Visitors are greeted by the magnificent main<br />
façade made of Untersberg marble. Four powerful<br />
statues look down upon you: the apostles Peter<br />
and Paul bearing a key and sword, as well as<br />
Salzburg’s two patron saints, Rupert and Virgil,<br />
holding a salt barrel and model of the church<br />
respectively. The Cathedral Square, with a statue<br />
to the Virgin Mary, forms the atrium – serving<br />
annually as the imposing backdrop for performances<br />
of “Jedermann” during the Salzburg<br />
Festival, and for the beloved Christmas market.<br />
The history of Salzburg Cathedral is closely<br />
intertwined with that of its rulers, the princearchbishops.<br />
The cathedral was destroyed by a<br />
number of fires, then rebuilt and expanded. The<br />
years displayed on the wrought-iron gates – 774,<br />
1628 and 1959 – recall the three occasions the<br />
cathedral was consecrated. In 1944, an aircraft<br />
bomb damaged the dome as well as parts of the<br />
sanctuary. In 1959, the Salzburg Cathedral was<br />
finally re-consecrated, now as magnificent as<br />
ever.<br />

The medieval bishops‘ residence was given<br />
today‘s magnificent early Baroque appearance<br />
at the end of the 16th century.<br />
Open to the public: the State Rooms of the Residenz<br />
- formerly used by Salzburg‘s prince archbishops<br />
as reception rooms and living quarters<br />
- as well as the Residenz Gallery with its fabulous<br />
collection of paintings by European artists of the<br />
16th - 19th centuries. The building referred to<br />
as the New Building of the Residenz is located<br />
across from the Residenz.<br />
Salzburg‘s Residenz, situated in the heart of<br />
the city, is an extensive complex of buildings,<br />
containing some 180 rooms and three spacious<br />
courtyards. The prince bishops often invited<br />
guests to a concert performance in the Rittersaal.<br />
Young Mozart also played regularly at the Salzburg<br />
Residenz. At that time his father was in the<br />
archbishop‘s service as the director of the cathedral<br />
orchestra. Today concerts (Salzburg Palace Concerts)<br />
are still performed in this hall because of<br />
its excellent acoustics.<br />
Today the Residenz is the venue for official receptions,<br />
meetings and international conventions.<br />
The Residenz is entered from Residenz Square<br />
through a large marble arch bearing the coat of<br />
arms of the prince archbishops Wolf Dietrich,<br />
Paris Lodron and Franz Anton Harrach. The wide<br />
main staircase leads up to the Carabinierisaal.<br />
The construction of the New Residence in Salzburg<br />
took over one hundred years. Four archbishops<br />
were responsible for its appearance,<br />
20
The Residency<br />
although the building was essentially characterized<br />
by Archbishop Wolf Dietrich von Raitenau.<br />
The archbishop had the former buildings torn<br />
down in 1588 to raise a new building for himself<br />
and his guests. But the archbishop decided to<br />
keep the Old Residence as his home in 1605.<br />
The New Residence today<br />
Salzburg Museum has been housed in the New<br />
Residence on Mozart Square since June 1, 2007.<br />
Precious objects of art, esthetic presentations,<br />
interesting displays and multimedia installations<br />
in various exhibition rooms blend into a<br />
harmonious whole.<br />
Salzburg‘s carillon<br />
The building of the New Residence is crowned<br />
by the famous Salzburg Glockenspiel. Salzburg‘s<br />
carillon is located in the bell tower on the west<br />
side of the New Residence.<br />
The 35 bells were cast in Antwerp between 1688<br />
and 1689.<br />
The carillon has operated in Salzburg since<br />
1704. It currently plays approximately 40 melodies,<br />
of which 16 are attributed to Johann Michael<br />
Haydn. The pieces by Mozart and his father are<br />
adaptations from the 19th century.<br />
21

Hellbrunn
Between 1612 and 1615, Salzburg’s princearchbishop<br />
Markus Sittikus commissioned<br />
the building of a summer residence at<br />
the foot of Hellbrunn mountain, a location<br />
already abundant in naturally flowing waters.<br />
Based on Italian models and in a relatively short<br />
period of time, an architectural jewel had been<br />
created, still reckoned amongst the most magnificent<br />
Renaissance buildings north of the Alps.<br />
The pleasure palace in Hellbrunn was designed<br />
to serve one specific purpose: provide amusement,<br />
distraction and entertainment. Very much in<br />
keeping with its motto: Joie de Vivre since 1615!<br />
The trick fountains allow you to experience, in<br />
virtually unchanged form, what brought so much<br />
pleasure for the archbishops almost 400 years<br />
ago: mysterious, mystical grottos, water-driven<br />
mechanical figures and mischievous jets of<br />
water spurting out from every nook and cranny.<br />
The trick fountains are so much fun, precisely<br />

Leopoldskron
In 1736, Salzburg prince-archbishop Leopold<br />
Anton Freiherr von Firmian built Schloss Leopoldskron<br />
as the family residence. Standing right<br />
next to the beautiful Leopoldskron Pond, it captivates<br />
with panoramic views of the surrounding<br />
mountain world. Because of his special ties to<br />
the palace, the prince-archbishop had his heart<br />
interred in the chapel of Schloss Leopoldskron.<br />
Since 1965, Schloss Leopoldskron has been<br />
well known far beyond Austria’s borders as an<br />
original shooting location for the world-famous<br />
movie “The Sound of Music”.<br />
Today’s Schloss Leopoldskron offers the opportunity<br />
to reside during your Salzburg visit in a<br />
truly idyllic setting on the outskirts of the city.<br />
Secluded behind the historic walls of this former<br />
princely residence are luxurious suites and<br />
rooms with an exclusive charm all their own.<br />
State-of-the-art technology, functional room<br />
amenities and personal service make Schloss<br />
Leopoldskron a popular year-round seminar- and<br />
event location for very special private aswell as<br />
professional occasions.<br />

The life of the von Trapp Family is inseparably<br />
linked to the city of Salzburg. Every year<br />
nearly 300,000 people visit the Trapp Family<br />
homes and film locations. The 1965 film about<br />
the moving life of the novice, Maria von Trapp<br />
and her singing family with Julie Andrews in the<br />
leading role, became an international box office<br />
success.<br />
Although the movie was dubbed and ran in<br />
German (and presumably Austrian) movie theatres<br />
as "Meine Lieder, meine Träume" for a while,<br />
you may still find the Salzburg locals a little bit<br />
puzzled for the simple reason that most of them<br />
have not seen the movie. However, if you want to<br />
test the movie‘s worldwide popularity, just start<br />
humming a few of the famous tunes and songs<br />
like „Edelweiss“ wherever on the planet you just<br />
happen to be - and within a moment you will be<br />
joined by complete strangers in a merry „The<br />
Sound of Music Chorus“.<br />

The Sound of Music tour includes the following<br />
original film locations: Mirabell Gardens and<br />
Pegasus Fountain (dancing scene with Maria and<br />
the children), Leopoldskron Palace (where the<br />
family lived in the film), Hellbrunn Palace (song<br />
scenes), Nonnberg Convent, (where Maria lived<br />
as a young novice), St. Gilgen / Wolfgangsee<br />
(opening scene in the movie), Mondsee Church<br />
(wedding scene).<br />

Rupert, a Franconian<br />
missionary, came to<br />
Salzburg, the former<br />
Roman Iuvavum, around<br />
700 AD and founded St.<br />
Peter‘s Church and a<br />
monastery, still extant as the<br />
oldest community of monks on<br />
German soil.<br />
St. Peter‘s Abbey had the building on the<br />
southern side of Cathedral Square constructed<br />
under Abbot Amand Pachler from 1657-1661 at<br />
the request of Archbishop Guidobald Graf Thun.<br />
The title to the new building was divided between<br />
them: the cellar and main floor belonged to the<br />
archbishop, the other rooms to the abbey. The<br />
main floor became the archbishops picture gallery.<br />
The design of the „Lange Galerie bey Hof“ was<br />
developed in Italy during the 16th century: a long<br />
corridor with windows on one side and a continuous<br />
wall for paintings on the opposite side.<br />
Ringsum ist Felseneinsamkeit.<br />
Des Todes bleiche Blumen schauern<br />
Auf Gräbern, die im Dunkel trauern -<br />
Doch diese Trauer hat kein Leid.<br />
Georg Trakl, 1909<br />
All of the windows face<br />
north, allowing the<br />
paintings to be seen in<br />
an even, but not direct<br />
light. The Long Gallery is<br />
one of the earliest buildings<br />
of its kind north of the Alps.<br />
The archbishops‘ collection of<br />
paintings included works by Peter Paul Rubens,<br />
Johann Heinrich Schönfeld and other notable<br />
artists. It was closed down at the end of the<br />
archbishops‘ reign in 1803 and most of the paintings<br />
were moved to Vienna. The room itself was<br />
conveyed to St. Peter‘s Abbey in 1819.<br />
St. Peter‘s Monastery had the Long Gallery<br />
renovated extensively from 2001 to 2009. The<br />
gallery can now be accessed by the public<br />
through the Cathedral Museum. Seventeen of<br />
the Monastery‘s large-size, religious paintings<br />
are on display.<br />

St. Peter‘s Monastery<br />
Notable personalities were among the monks<br />
who lived in St. Peter‘s Monastery. A vast<br />
number of achievements bear witness to the<br />
scholarliness and industriousness of the<br />
medieval monks. The construction of the Alm<br />
Channel, cutting a tunnel through the Mönchsberg,<br />
was one of the masterstrokes of their time.<br />
Many monks taught at the university founded in<br />
1622 and music and theater were continuously<br />
cultivated in St. Peter‘s.<br />
13 years old Mozart composed the Dominicus<br />
Mass in 1769 for the later Abbot Hagen Auer and<br />
conducted his famous Mass in C minor in the<br />
church in 1783. Johann Michael Haydn wrote the<br />
Rupert Mass for St. Peter‘s in 1782.<br />
St. Peter‘s Cemetery with its unique ambiance<br />
is one of the oldest and most beautiful cemeteries<br />
in the world. It is the final resting place for a<br />
number of famous personalities, artists, scholars<br />
and businessmen: Sanction Solaria (architect<br />
and builder of Salzburg Cathedral), Nannerl<br />
Mozart (Mozart‘s sister), Lorenz Hagen Auer (the<br />
Mozart family‘s landlord and friend), Michael<br />
Haydn (composer and Joseph Haydn‘s younger<br />
brother), Paul Hofhaimer (organist and composer),<br />
Sigmund Haffner (alderman and mayor, friend of<br />
the Mozart family, Haffner Serenade and Haffner<br />
Symphony by Mozart).<br />
The Catacombs, hewn out of the Mönchsberg<br />
rock, are one of the special attractions in St.<br />
Peter‘s Cemetery and open all year round. They<br />
are said to be of early Christian origin.<br />

Müllner Bräu<br />
The monastery of Mülln has been brewing<br />
beer since 1621 following a closely guarded<br />
secret recipe and skillfully applying the art of old<br />
brewing techniques.<br />
The “Braustübl” is a popular meeting place<br />
rich in character and tradition with a lovely<br />
garden. It is Austria’s largest beer inn where<br />
beer is sold in stone-made pitchers draught<br />
directly from wooden barrels. A variety of<br />
delicious local snacks can be chosen from an<br />
arcade of small shops and market stalls, called the<br />
“Schmankerlgang”.<br />
The Bräustübl is a well-respected traditional<br />
meeting place – a piece of living history in the<br />
world heritage centre of Salzburg.<br />
