Famous residents of the “Hagenauer House”: The Mozarts<\/div>

One certain house in the\u00a0Getreidegasse<\/a>\u00a0always draws particular attention: No. 9, the house in which Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born. Salzburg\u2019s most famous son came into this world on 27 January 1756. His family actually lived here for 26 years, from 1747 on, occupying an apartment on the third floor. With parents Leopold and Anna Maria as well as sister “Nannerl”, Mozart spend his childhood and much of his youth there. In 1773, the family moved to the house we know today as the “Mozart Residence”, on the\u00a0Makartplatz Square.<\/p>

Museum<\/a>\u00a0and “pilgrimage site”<\/div>

The famous composer’s birthplace continues to be a magnet for Mozart fans and history buffs from around the world. It was actually the International Mozarteum Foundation which first opened a museum in the house back in 1880. Constantly developed and expanded, this year-round museum is an absolute must for every Salzburg visitor.<\/p>

The museum invites you to take a tour lasting about an hour through original rooms. Also amble through\u00a0a middle-class apartment reconstructed as authentically as possible.

A particular joy for Mozart fans: the historical instruments, including Mozart’s own violin and clavichord.<\/p>
