True. Salzburg is (today) in Austria. It was, however, founded by Bavarians, belonged to Bavaria until the times of the Mühldorf battle in 1322 and became independent (and certainly not occupied by Austrians). It owned huge parts of southern Bavaria in those days. Only in 1803 a small Frenchman called Napolen gifted Salzburg to the Viennese occupants. Lets agree that Salzburg is a very European city but certainly is Salzburg style and culture more Baravian than Habsburgian-Austrian....
