Mozarthaus Vienna

Mozarthaus Vienna is a museum in the historic centre of Vienna located in the building where Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart lived during part of his time in the city. It is dedicated to Mozart’s life and work in Vienna and presents a mix of period rooms and documentary displays.

Exhibition galleries cover Mozart’s professional and personal life in Vienna, showing letters, contemporary portraits, period instruments and interpretive material about his compositions and daily circumstances.
