Welcome
For solo female explorers, mother-daughter duos, or groups of girlfriends, the UNESCO World Heritage City of Salzburg offers deep-rooted traditions in a setting that feels both magical and safe. It is a small, world-class town with an excellent reputation for superlative musical and cultural events. Perfect for curious and culture-loving women seeking both inspiration and charm.
The legacy of the Prince-Archbishopric is manifested in the culture and in the churches of the Old Town, while contemporary trends and art open up the apparent classical, conservative façade. Where the prince-archbishops once demonstrated their power and magnificence, there are now bustling markets and century-old traditional shops. The area of the old town is ideal for slow strolls and discovering handcrafted treasures.
There is a feast for the eye, from the hand-forged iron guild signs in the Getreidegasse to the displays of international brands and charming passageways in the Old Town. Women travelers will appreciate the city’s welcoming atmosphere, walkable layout, and abundance of cozy cafés and boutiques. It becomes clear why in 1997 UNESCO awarded the ensemble of church towers, hills, and fortress the title of World Heritage Site.
Did you know: Mozart was a native Salzburger; when he was born, Salzburg was a prince-archbishopric, an ecclesiastical city-state of the Holy Roman Empire. Today, his legacy continues to inspire visitors from around the world who are drawn to a love for history, art, and unforgettable European elegance.

Gasthof Goldgasse

For head chef Dragan Miljkovic and sous-chef Nico Wlodraczak, it’s high-quality, seasonal, and regional products that count, and this approach has served them well: The restaurant is the proud owner of a Gaul-Millau toque. How about some Bad Aussee fish soup? Baroque-style ravioli with roast veggies? Chateaubriand steak? Crispy fried chicken? Grilled pikeperch? These and many more delicacies of excellent quality are served in the cozy Gasthof Goldgasse restaurant with its vaulted ceilings. Service staff headed by Niko Collini are attentive yet unobtrusive and will familiarise you with their fine selection of wines.

In the shady guest garden, between olive and citrus trees, you can enjoy Austrian classics such as fried chicken, boiled hamburger, or the legendary veal liver, but also borrowings from northern Italy in the form of vegetable dishes that vary depending on the season. The Austrian dessert tradition is upheld in the form of semolina pancakes and curd cheese dumplings. Fine homemade ice cream and sorbets round off the menu.
