Why go

This record is the Salzburg Museum's main house in the Neue Residenz on Mozartplatz, not the Salzburg Residenz across the square and not the museum's other sites. The museum says its name covers the main building and several other locations, including the Fortress Museum, the Toy Museum, the Folklore Museum and the Museum of the Celts in Hallein. Its site says the Neue Residenz is currently closed for major renovations and site expansion, with reopening expected in 2027, and that since March 2024 it has shown exhibitions in partner venues across the city and province under the title 'Salzburg Museum – Gastspiel'. Its locations page lists the Neue Residenz under 'Under construction or in planning'.
