In the middle of the Linzergasse, an impressive gate leads you to the Kapuzinerberg. The oldest indications of walls on the Kapuzinerberg Mountain date back to the 13th century; however, these walls proved to be insufficient for Salzburg during the Thirty Years War. Between 1629 and 1632, the Southern side of the mountain was heavily fortified, whereas the Northern side was secured naturally by steep rock walls and cliffs.
