Glockenspiel is the clock tower of the “New Government Building” and was commissioned and erected between 1588 and 1602 by Archbishop Wolf Dietrich. The Clock Tower has 35 bells which play 40 different melodies composed by Mozart, Haydn and many others.

Today the building houses the Salzburg Museum. It is located on Residenzplatz (Residence Square) and Mozartplatz(Mozart's Square) right across the Salzburg Cathedral and The Residenz. The Mozart monument was erected in 1842 and gave the square its name, Mozartplatz.
