Why Go
The Mozarts moved across the river in 1773 to this house, where dance lessons had once been given. Wolfgang lived here until he left for Vienna and wrote symphonies, concertos and serenades.
Bombs destroyed half the house in 1944. It was rebuilt and opened as a museum in 1996, with family portraits, instruments and an audio tour of the music written here.
