The “House of Mozart Salzburg” is one of a kind.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born in the “Hagenauer House” at no. 9 Getreidegasse on the 27th January 1756. He lived there with his sister “Nannerl” and his parents until 1773.
Mozart´s Birthplace is now a museum that is open all year round.
The family Mozart lived at the third floor of the house from 1747 to 1773. On the 27th January 1756 it became the birthplace of the now world famous Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
The Museum:
In 1880 the International Mozarteum Foundation set up the first museum for Mozart. It is now a place of culture and classic music that attracts thousands of visitors to Salzburg from all over the world. The house of Mozart is one of the most frequently visited sights and places of interest in Austria.
You can walk through the original rooms in which the Mozart family lived. A wide range of artefacts, including historical instruments, documents, keepsakes and mementos, and the majority of the portraits painted during his lifetime is in that rooms. As an example is the unfinished oil portrait painted by Mozart’s brother in law Joseph Lange in 1789 – Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart at the piano. Among the most famous exhibits are Mozart’s childhood violin, his clavichord, portraits and letters belonging to the Mozart family.
The musical instruments exhibited in Mozart’s Geburtshaus were passed on from Mozart’s widow, Constanze, through her sons Carl Thomas and Franz Xaver Wolfgang, and are now owned by the International Mozarteum Foundation.
