From deeper inside the fortress, can be found displays of archaeological investigations which reveal an early chapel and a stone oven, the latter of which probably dates from the Romans.

The Hohensalzburg Fortress stands proud over the city of Salzburg. It dates from 1077, although it was enlarged in 1495-1519. It claims to be the largest fully preserved fortress in central Europe. It is also claimed that, during its long history, it has never been conquered by enemy troops.
