Surrounded by the Residenzplatz, the Waagplatz and the Kaigasse, Salzburg's most famous son, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, watches over his own square in the center of the city. The Mozart statue that gave the square its name was erected in 1842. During the excavations for the monument, the workers found old Roman mosaics. Engraved on these was an ancient Roman text: Hic habitas felicitas, nihil intret mali: "Here lives fortune, no evil shall ever pass this place." The building that Mozart turns his back on is the home that the cathedral architect Santino Solari built for himself.
