Hellbrunn Palace Boat Trip + Trick Fountains

Meet at 1a on Franz-Josef-Kai Street in Salzburg at the indicated time to board a boat to Hellbrunn Palace.

We will travel south on the Salzach River, admiring views of the old town. Upon disembarking, a historical English double-decker bus will take us to Hellbrunn Palace, a baroque 'villa' from the 19th century.

In the palace gardens, enjoy the renowned trick fountains, featuring fountains, sculptures, caves, mechanical deer, and hydraulic machines that surprise visitors. This entertainment was designed by the prince-archbishop Markus Sittikus for his guests.

Next, enter the palace and use an audio guide to explore the ballrooms with frescoes by Mascagni, the prince's chamber, and the music chamber.

After around 2.5 hours, we will board a bus back to the meeting point in Salzburg.
