Where The Sound of Music was filmed
A free-spirited governess brings music back to a stern widower's household on the eve of Austria's annexation, in one of cinema's best-loved musicals. Salzburg wears its starring role proudly, from the Mirabell gardens of Do-Re-Mi to the lakeside palace terrace and the abbey on the hill.
