The displays are generally praised for being informative and engaging, with many interactive elements that appeal to both adults and children.

    One of the highlights frequently mentioned by visitors is the Salzburg Panorama, a 360-degree painting by Johann Michael Sattler that provides a detailed view of the city in 1829. This artwork is often described as impressive and helps visitors understand the city's historical layout.
