Beethoven-Haus Bonn

In the old town of Bonn lies Beethoven's house, now a museum. Across 3 floors, you can find instruments, old manuscripts, paintings, and sculptures, and learn about how he became the legendary composer he is. I found Beethoven-Haus to be slightly underwhelming, as it was not interactive and small—I expected at least a piano to play on. The "special exhibition" was not too special at all, as it only had abstract paintings and a small sculpture. On the bright side, the "music hall" played pieces by Beethoven and offered a place to sit and relax. If you are a fan of his, I recommend visiting. If not, don't waste your time as it will only bore you.

For me a bit disappointing, the rooms tell the story of Beethoven with exhibits, but I didn't feel a connection with the composer and the house, no every day household objects, like say a room or rooms set out to show that it was a home. The floorboards squeaked loudly as you made your way round, and I hate to say this, but the garden, with the grape vines was the best. Sorry to all you Beethoven enthusiasts

Lovely place rich in history and in what classic music was, when it was not classic yet. The museum is small but with a modern setting and with many audiovisual aids. Remember to buy the tickets outside the house in the shop across the street.

Beethoven is a legendary music composer and a pianist who is popular amongst generations. I had the privilege to visit his museum a few days ago. It had everything that we needed to know about Beethoven and his musical works. All of his musical manuscripts were displayed. As a result, I could get an insight as to how he spent lots of time in working hard to come up with famous musical pieces like Fur Lise, Ode to Joy, Moonlight Sonata and many more. I could also see some of his portraits and of his team members. In this museum we could also get a glimpse into his social life and physical challenges that he had to face. Overall, he is the most popular composer recognised even today. So, I am very much happy to have visited his Haus at Bonn, his birthplace. There are also plenty of merchandise of his that you can purchase at the shop opposite to his museum.

Small and wonderful museum. I recommend using the free audioguide, so you can enjoy the visit on your own pace. Do not miss the music room (o the right side of the garden) to enjoy Beethoven music execution

This is the house where Ludwig van Beethoven was born. Unfortunately the house was later used by others as well so you can’t see the original furnitures. A very well prepared content is waiting for you in the museum. An application has been designed to be your audio guide throughout your journey on your smartphone. So better bring a headphone with you. There is even internet connection in the museum shop for you to be able the download it, so no worries if you forget to do so beforehand. Don’t forget to visit the music room and the treasury right across the Beethoven House yard. Im delighted to be made part of Beethoven’s life!

Visiting Beethoven’s House Museum is a profound experience that offers a glimpse into the life and times of a genius artist. While some rooms are sparsely furnished, you can almost hear the echoes of an unwritten melody lingering in the air. A must-visit for anyone who appreciates the magic of music and history.

This interesting museum stands on the place where Beethoven was actually born in 1770. In the 3 floors that make up the building you can find different kinds of memorabilia related to the great artist: sculptures, paintings, musical instruments, scores and objects from his everyday life. At the entrance you can download a free app that serves as a useful audioguide. The entrance ticket costs 15.4€ if you buy it online.
