Panorama Museum — Attraction in Salzburg

This small museum can be accessed directly from the square outside via a door by the post office or from the main museum through an interesting underground tunnel.

Hint: if visiting the main museum as well, ask for a combined ticket. Even with a Salzburg Card, which includes the entry for both, this will save you time and frustration, especially if coming from the main museum, as there is no option to buy a ticket at the end of the tunnel and the automated gates only allow entry to the correct tickets.

The museum itself has s a small display of local views around the edge of the main display, which as the name suggests is a large circular view of the city looking outwards from the centre.

The wall painting is very detailed and realistic, there is even a telescope 🔭 provided to get close up views of the amazing detail.

The shop sells a number of cards, some quite large with copies of sections of the panorama.

Definitely worth a visit and recommended...

If I wouldn't have had the Salzburg card which grants you free entry to the museum, I would have skipped it. But if you do have the Salzburg card it's definitly an option and you're probably outside again after 10...
