This tour is only available at Christmas time on Dec. 24. Translated into more than 44 languages, known in almost every country of the world, and sung by 2 billion people on Christmas Eve -- we are of course talking about the famous Christmas carol, ''Silent Night, Holy Night.'' It was first performed in 1818 and its origin is in the province of Salzburg. The tour leaves Salzburg and stops first in Arnsdorf.
There you visit the oldest school in Austria that was also home to the headmaster, Franz Xaver Gruber. We continue to Oberndorf, where ''Silent Night, Holy Night'' was performed for the first time in 1818. The Silent Night Chapel and the Silent Night Museum provide you with all the information about this world famous piece.
The next stop is the old salt-mining town of Hallein, with a visit to a museum displaying the original guitar used to play ''Silent Night, Holy Night'' for the first time. Along the return trip to Salzburg, we enjoy traditional advent music.
Meeting/ pick-up point: all tours departs from Mirabellplatz 2 (next to Mirabell Gardens and University Mozarteum) Salzburg.
