Mozarthaus


After a long breakfast in the hotel on Saturday, we went out to find Mozart’s House in Vienna. He lived in something like 13 houses in his time in Vienna. The only extant house of his is also coincidentally his most expensive house.

Although it took us forever to find it, the house was really excellent. Again, the admission price includes the audio guide, which explained a lot about Mozart’s life, the musical world in his time, and the rooms and furniture present. I found this to be a really excellently organized museum, and awesome in general. They did accidentally give me the kids’ audio guide at first, which I only realized when mine stopped talking like 5 minutes before Alison’s did. But that was easily fixed. We spent about 2 hours at Mozart's house, so we then had to change our plans around. Instead of going to the Schonbrunn Palace on Saturday, we decided to postpone that a day, and instead go to more museums and palaces within the city center...
