Paris Lodron

At the request of Prince-Archbishop Markus Sittich von Hohenems, Lodron was elected Provost of the cathedral chapter and President of the Archbishop's exchequer.While the Thirty Years' War raged outside the Archbishopric, the university was built up and maintained by a federation of Benedictine abbeys from Salzburg, Switzerland, Bavaria and Austria.Paris Lodron had modern bastion fort (trace italienne) fortifications built for the town and country by master builder Santino Solari.In the city, a defensive belt of five large bastions was drawn around the Neustadt, which stretched from the Linzertoren over the Franz-Josef-Straße area to the former Mirabell Gate and the spa garden.Despite the military and political problems of his time, Lodron was able to complete the Salzburg Cathedral renovations begun but not finished by Sittich, and have it artistically decorated.
