Burghausen

Built around a hilltop fortress above the Salzach, Burghausen grew into a Bavarian border town whose historic core faces Austria across the river. Burghausen Castle stretches for more than a kilometre along its ridge, with six courtyards forming one of the world’s longest castle complexes. Expanded under the dukes of Bavaria-Landshut, it remains the town’s defining monument. Below the walls, the old town follows the narrow strip between the castle hill and the Salzach, with colourful gabled houses and church towers marking its medieval street pattern.
