Getreidegasse is a long, narrow street that is the main shopping street in the Old Town of Salzburg, Austria. This busy street has shops with old-style sign describing what they sell or services they offer. Many of the shops have today been taken over by international brand names. Getreidegasse is a good place to go window shopping in Salzburg.

The house where Mozart was born is located at No. 9 Getreidegasse.

One of the most endearing sights at Getreidegasse is the lady who sells puppets. She has been doing it since 1987 and can be found along the street in the summer months.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
