Residenzplatz is a large, stately square in the historic centre of Salzburg in Austria. Originally named Hauptplatz, it is now named after the Alte Residenz of the Prince-Archbishops of Salzburg. It is one of the city's most popular places to visit. The Residenzplatz is enclosed by Salzburg Cathedral to the south and the Alte Residenz to the west. To the east is the Neue Residenz, a Renaissance building erected from 1588 onwards, with its prominent bell tower.
