“Dirndl meets Hollywood” at the Salzburger Heimatwerk 

From July 3 to September 6, 2025, this exhibition shows how the dirndl gained international fame through film. Original costumes worn by the actors, designs and correspondence will be on display. The exhibition is open daily from 10:00 am.   

In addition, a special anniversary dirndl will be made, which is based on the dirndl worn by Maria (Julie Andrews) and can be purchased at the Salzburger Heimatwerk. Our guides are already wearing this dirndl on a daily basis. 

From 2026, the Sound of Music Museum will open in the area Hellbrunn Palace, focusing on the history of the Trapp family and the film. The Sound of Music Museum will be located right next to the famous Gazebo from the movie. Construction work on the museum has already begun and the opening is planned for spring 2026.
