About

The Mönchsberg (Austrian German pronunciation: [ˈmœnçsbɛrɡ]), at 508 metres (1,667 ft) above sea level, is one of five mountains in the city of Salzburg in Austria. It flanks the western side of Salzburg's historic city centre, and forms part of the city's UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It is named after the Benedictine monks of St Peter's Abbey at the northern foot of the mountain.
