Five most important
PRINCE ARCHBISHOPS
of Salzburg
The temporal and spiritual rulers of Salzburg
It was through them that the archdiocese flourished and became rich
They were the spiritual and temporal lords of their times. In them were combined divine authority, secular power and political vision. They were the architects who were responsible for the surviving magnificence of old Salzburg.
The prince-archbishops reformed and improved the local administration, waged war with Bavaria and Austria and suppressed the rebellious peasantry while introducing measures to combat pestilences and plague.
Sie waren die Baumeister und Gestalter des barocken Salzburg. Das Erzbistum stieg durch ihr Geschick zu Reichtum und Wohlstand auf. Die Mozartstadt erlangte die Schönheit, für die sie so berühmt ist.
