The DomQuartier museum circuit in Salzburg connects the Residenz State Rooms (the Prince-Archbishop’s court), the Dommuseum, St. Peter’s Abbey Museum, and the cathedral balcony via elevated walkways above the old town. It opened in 2014 and reconstructs the power architecture of Salzburg’s Prince-Archbishops, who governed both church and state from this block until 1803. The cathedral balcony view over Residenzplatz is a highlight. Admission around EUR 15; open Wednesday to Monday from 10 AM; check domquartier.at. Residenzplatz 1, 10 minutes on foot from the train station. Better for historically curious visitors than casual tourists.
