A busy shopping area located in the old city, Getreidegasse means "grain lane" this is also the location of where Mozart lived until the age of 17....the street had a different name when Mozart lived there. The area is picturesque with its wrought iron signs.

The wrought- iron shop signs originated in the Middle Ages when many people were illiterate and relied on the unique sign language. There are many inner courtyard s that add to the charm of this street. They also have passageways between Getreidegasse and Grunmarkt streets.

This is a gorgeous shopping street. Very commercialised with large chain stores, but still a must see Andy lots of side streets to lead you off to restaurants and other local sights

This is a narrow 500 meter street leads up to the city hall building, branches out to many little isles occupied with nice cafe, shops and restaurant, It is very well worth the stroll. C U Around

Lovely to walk the streets lined with shoppes, cafes, and more. Plenty of places to stop for cake and coffee or gelato. Was here at holiday time years ago, and it was even more beautiful. Loved Mozarts birthplace.

This is no flea market its a high end shopping street. If you are looking to splurge in shopping this is one of the places to go to.. apart from this lane there is a shopping street near Mirabell platz which has local brands. Decent collection at much affordable prices. Plus there is a shopping lane behind the Dom Carhedral..... More

Narrow but charming street. As the heart of the old city and the place of Mozart it is always crowded of tourists. Walking along the street you find lots of shops or else you can can have something to eat or drink.
