history
On April 22nd, 1841 the “Dommusikverein und Mozarteum” was founded in Salzburg as a music school and for the collection of old Mozart documents. In 1880, the Mozarteum Public Music School, the forerunner of today's Art University, was founded following the earlier simple school forms . In 1914 the music school was recognized as a conservatory with public rights. In 1939 this conservatory was renamed the Reichshochschule Mozarteum . After 1945 it was called the Musikhochschule.
In 1953 the university became the Academy for Music and Performing Arts “Mozarteum” in Salzburg . In 1970, the academy was renamed the university again and was now called the University of Music and Performing Arts “Mozarteum” in Salzburg . Since 1998 the university has been called Universität Mozarteum Salzburg .

In 1978 the first New Mozarteum was created by adapting the Paris Lodron Primogeniture Palace and building a new building. The building was closed in 1998 on suspicion of carcinogenic pollutants.
