Die festung hohensalzburg
- 1. DIE FESTUNG HOHENSALZBURG A brief history of The Hohensalzburg Castle Die groβte Burg in ganz Ӧsterrich The largest castle in all Austria
- 2. Some things to get straight before we begin… • The Austrian (or should I say German) name for this translates as “the high Salzburg Fortress”. • The Hohensalzburg castle is in believe it or not…. Salzburg. • Salzburg is here.
- 3. Le map.
- 4. • Salzburg, has been a very important city, in history, being close to the German border. • Germany, or the Holy Roman Empire as they called it back then, may I remind you, is here.
- 6. • In the year of 1075, a large fight broke out. • A REALLY BIG ONE. • It was called the Investiture Controversy, and it was basically like this-
- 7. Side 1: The State- or in other words, the Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV. I think I’ll kick you bishops out because I don’t like you. Ill take you new ones instead. Ha ha ha!
- 8. Side 2: The Church, or in other words, Pope Gregory VII. Hang on! You’re not allowed to do that!!!! MY CHURCH, MY RULES! Ha ha ha!
- 9. • And so the fight began. The bishops here, in the little religious town of Salzburg, were worried. • Especially this guy.
- 10. Gebhard, the Archbishop of Salzburg. Ok chaps, I think sometime or other, the Holy Roman emperor will attack us. I think we should be prepared. A castle, maybe? Yes sir!
- 11. • So the castle construction began, in 1077. • It was chosen to be built on a hill, next to the picturesque river Danube, the traditional border between Austria and Germany. • May I remind you again, the Danube is here.
- 12. Le map, again.
- 13. And so the castle was built. But the original castle was only a small wooden motte and bailey. Until…
- 14. 1103 CE. SAME TWO INSTITUTIONS. SAME TWO OPINIONS. SAME TWO ARGUMENTS. YES, ITS ANOTHER DISPUTE BETWEEN THE CHURCH AND STATE!!!
- 15. Only this time, it’s between these two guys. • Henry I of England… And Pope Paschal II.
- 16. And once again, the bishops down in Salzburg are getting worried, AGAIN. So slowly, fearing imminent attack, they start expanding.
- 17. • And so, in the course of the next centuries, more wars break out. • The Peasant’s War in the 1500’s! • The Thirty years war in the 1600’s! • The Napoleonic Wars in the 1800’s! • And, once again, the bishops in Salzburg are getting pretty worried.
- 18. • So the castle gets bigger, and bigger. So big that it now looks like this-
- 20. • Yes, that is a very large castle. • In fact, the largest in the whole of Austria! • HOWEVER...
- 21. • It’s soon becoming clear that this castle isn’t really going to work in the 19th century, this being the age of industrial revolution, and such, but namely, with these-
- 23. • And these.
- 25. • So, eventually, it’s traditional use of a garrison, barracks, prison, etc. Is now abandoned, and the castle is no longer “operational”.
- 26. • But then this guy shows up. • Otto von Bismarck, ... And makes World War 1 and whole lot worse than it already was.
- 27. • So in World War 1, the Germans and Austrians make good use of the castle, as a prison for the Italians.
- 28. • But since, then, it hasn’t really been used. • It’s now one of Austria’s leading tourist attractions.
- 29. • And that, was the history of the Hohensalzburg castle.
