Close to St Stephen’s Cathedral, there is a building in which a man who is a synonym for Vienna lived – the grand Mozart. Mozart lived in this house from 1784 to 1787. The building dates back to XVII century. He rented a flat here from Camesina family. In 1941, 150 year-anniversary of the death of this great artist was marked and it was only then that the house was opened for the public. The same year, Mozart’s week of German Reich was celebrated, and with this act, the Nazis wanted to represent Mozart as a German composer.
The building is located with the Museum of the City of Vienna. On as many as four floors can you see the works of this composer. Many different saved exhibits can be seen there, as long as different audio and video installationsabout his life through music. There is an original Mozart violin here which has been exhibited here since the 300th anniversary of his birth.
