Auditorium in the old University, Festivaldistrict

The renovation of the Great Aula was completed in December 2004 and was part of the total concept for the Mozart year 2006. The Aula lies in the Furtwängler-Park and opens into Max-Reinhardt-Platz at the opposite of the Festival Halls.

With the renovation, the acustic quality improved and from the rising stands (from 5th row on), the audience has an optimal view of the stage from any point of the auditorium.

How to reach the Great Aula:

It lies in the heart of Salzburg's old-town and can be reached by walking within a few minutes from nearly all points of the old town.

Parking: Travellers by car can use the "Altstadt-Garage" in the Mönchsberg. It lies right behind the Hofstallgasse, at the end of which the Furtwängler-Park is located, where you find the main entrance to the Great Aula.
