Why did Mozart dislike Salzburg?
Mozart hated Salzburg. He complained that it was a hick town, far too provincial to understand him (and how right he was). He was constantly feuding with the Archbishop of Salzburg, an argument that culminated when Count Thun of the archiepiscopal court planted his noble foot on Mozart's plebeian backside.
