Homes of Mozart
,
Beethoven and Schubert

Beethovens Klavier

There is no other city in the world that can boast such a music tradition as in Vienna. Encouraged by the music-loving Hapsburgs and the aristocracy, composers were drawn to the city like a magnet and inspired to write their greatest works. And what more personal than being in the houses that these composers actually lived in, to walk on the very floors they walked on! Although Mozart and Beethoven moved countless times, the baroque houses on this tour were their favourite dwellings. In contrast, Schubert's birthplace is an enchanting cottage in a former village on the outskirts of Vienna.
