Just out the back entrance of our hotel is one of my favorite things in Salzburg: the pferdeschwemme or "horse pool". It was built to wash and cool off horses, and was located next to what was once stables, and is now the large concert hall where the Salzburg Festival takes place every summer. What I like about it is not just the idea (a swimming pool for horses!), but that it's so beautifully decorated. Check out the lovely frescoes of different breeds of horse.
