Festungsberg is a mountain in the city of Salzburg, Salzburgerland, Austria. Its summit at about is the site of Hohensalzburg Castle. The mountain is located in the south of the ''Altstadt'' or Old Town quarter. It forms the northern rim of the Berchtesgaden range within the Northern Limestone Alps. Archaeological findings date back to the Celtic La Tène culture. The area was fortified during the days of the Roman above the city of ''Iuvavum'' until King Odoacer of Italy commanded to leave the Province of ''Noricum'' in 488. About 715 Bishop Rupert of Salzburg established the Benedictine Nonnberg Abbey at the eastern foot of the mountain. Archbishop Gebhard had a first castle built at the top during the Investiture Controversy about 1077. Formerly used for grassland or for vineyard cultivation by the monks of St Peter's Abbey, the slopes are nowadays mostly wooded. ==See also== * Salzburg * Salzburgerland 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Festungsberg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
