    Eine sehr interessante Ausstellung die von der Zeit Salzburgs im Römischen Reichs bis Heute reicht. Durch die Führung durch das Gebäude und den Außenbereich wurde jedes wichtige Zeitalter (Anfänge der Militärgeschichte im Römischen Reich, Erster bzw. Zweiter Weltkrieg, Kalter Krieg, etc.) gut und spannend erklärt. Viele Ausstellungsstücke sind sehr gut erhalten und manche sehen sogar fast wie neu aus. WICHTIG: Man muss sich eine Woche vor Besuch bei dem Museum anmelden. Hierzu einfach auf die Website gehen, die E-Mail Adresse suchen und dann anschreiben.

    오스트리아의 과거부터 현재. 오스트리아에서 일어난 역사적 사건들과 각종 무기, 모형을 관람할 수 있는 전시관입니다. 전시는 세심하고 전문적으로 준비되어있고 전시 내내 자세한 설명으로 쉽게 놓칠 수 있는 세심한 부분들을 친절하게 설명해 주십니다. 수요일만 운영되는것이 아쉽지만 미리 메일이나 전화를 통해 방문 가능 여부를 문의하시는 것 만으로도 방문을 예약할 수 있습니다(관람 비용은 무료입니다) 매일 계속되는 성과 정원, 성당 투어에 지치셨다면 특별히 시간을 내서 공부하지 않으면 평생 찾아볼 일 없을지도 모를 오스트리아의 근현대사를 여행 기간 동안 박물관을 견학하는것 만으로도 알아볼 수 있는 기회가 될테니 시간적 여유가 되는 여행자 분들께서는 수요일 이곳에 방문하셔서 귀중한 경험을 쌓아보시길 추천드립니다.
