Why this is the correct answer
Salzburg's Old Town was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1997 in recognition of its extraordinarily complete Baroque urban fabric, shaped by the prince-archbishops who rebuilt much of the city in the seventeenth century. Key landmarks include the Cathedral, the Residenz palace, the Hohensalzburg Fortress, and the Collegiate Church. Its skyline of domes and spires against the backdrop of the Hohensalzburg ranks among the most recognized in the German-speaking world.
