Mozart Residence

From 1773 to 1787, the Mozart family called the "Dance Master's House" their home. This charming residence is located at what we now know as Makartplatz. The first-floor apartment, with its generous eight rooms, has been transformed into a fascinating museum.

The reopening of the Mozart Residence on January 26, 1996, was a momentous occasion. Today, visitors can explore an impressive collection of items, including Mozart's fortepiano, original documents, and portraits. The museum paints a vivid picture of the house's history, Mozart's years in Salzburg, and the life of the Mozart family. A multi-vision show, alongside rotating exhibitions, concerts, and talks, promises a rich and varied Mozart experience.

While you're there, don't miss the opportunity to stroll through Makartplatz. This lively square, named after the famous painter Hans Makart, is a hub of activity and a great spot for people-watching. Plus, you'll find charming cafes and shops around the area, perfect for a leisurely afternoon.
