Marionette Museum

In the experience museum "World of Puppets" in the fire passage of Hohensalzburg Fortress, historical puppets invite you on an unforgettable journey back in time.

A tour through Salzburg's history

A focus of the presentations relates to the history of Salzburg: for example, the time of the prince-archbishops and the Salzach shipping are discussed. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is also a theme: Papageno and Papagena from the opera "The Magic Flute" are given a stage just like the question of how Mozart traveled in his time. Another topic is the scene of the peasant uprising in the year 1525.
