A Glimpse into the Splendid Heart of Salzburg<\/h2>\n

Behind the magnificent fa\u00e7ade of Salzburg Residenz lies far more than the history of a building. For centuries, it served as a stage for political ambition and ecclesiastical representation, providing the prince-archbishops with a setting in which to display their exquisite taste and refined artistic sensibilities.<\/p>\n

While photographer Florian St\u00fcrzenbaum captures the distinctive character of the state rooms in this illustrated volume, Christoph Brandhuber\u2019s accompanying texts open a window onto the hidden stories of the past. He explores how diplomacy and splendour flourished during the Baroque era, both in the arts and in architecture, delves into the personal tastes and private interests of individual prince-archbishops, and dedicates a chapter to the women who lived in the shadows of power.<\/p>\n

Salzburg Residenz is a unique cultural monument of European significance. This illustrated volume reveals why it is so important not only to admire this enduring stone testament to history, but also to preserve its precious legacy for future generations.<\/p>\n

The book will be published on 30 November 2026 and will be available from bookshops, our online shop and the museum shop.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
