In the three-storey exhibition, the visitor learns details of Mozart’s life – the domestic circumstances in which he grew up, when he began to play music, who were his friends and patrons, his relationship with his family, his passion for opera, and much more.

Mozarts Instruments
What would a musician do without his instruments? Right from his childhood probably hardly a day went by for Mozart without him actively making music. Fortunately some of the instruments he played have been preserved until today. It is perhaps true to say that in the eyes of posterity every object Mozart touched even only once evokes a special aura, but the instruments he himself owned and used for years help us in particular to understand his music. Mozart finely tuned his compositions to the special sound qualities of these instruments. Thus they can reveal much to us nowadays about his ideas of the sound he wanted to create.
