The completion of the New Residence took more than 100 years and 3 archbishops.
Today, state rooms and the Salzburg Museum can be visited in the New Residence.
The Salzburg Glockenspiel with its 35 bells took 2 years to restore and gives pleasure to the locals and visitors of Salzburg three times a day with familiar melodies in three octaves with all semitones. The repertoire includes 100 different pieces of music by various composers. The carillon is driven mechanically or can also be operated by hand crank. Visit the carillon tower as part of a guided tour and you will be doubly amazed - on the one hand by the technical achievement, and on the other by the wonderful panoramic view of the city of Salzburg.
