I was in Salzburg not so long ago, but didn't have time to visit Hohenwerfen Castle (where the film is mostly set). Although I'm not sure my German companions would have been quite so keen on war film nostalgia as me...
Still, I can recommend Salzburg as a great town to see, its more Ye Olde Worlde than any single town we have in the UK - just the carpark alone is hewn straight from a naked mountainside and has a castle perched on top. Not too shabby!
Great aircraft, the Junkers Ju-52.

Berg Hohenwerfen is a must see. However awesome Festung Hohensalzberg was, I assure you Werfen is much better.
