Very nice place to visit. Well organized and informative. You will find a variety of Beethoven’s belongings as well as paintings and his music books and instruments. Loved it! Sadly no photos allowed inside the house.
Small house filled with interesting tidbits on Beethoven including a unique statue made from a plaster mask while he was not very old, the string quartet instruments he was gifted, items from his daily life, facsimile scores, ear trumpets, and info on his friends, patrons, and acquaintances. I recommend doing the audio tour as it will add quite a bit of context and information to the experience. Perhaps too much. If one were to listen to every entry in the guide you'd likely be there for several hours.
Spent a Great time visiting Beethoven house. Highly recommend if you fan of classic music and interestted in this music genius. You can rent audio guide, plus for non German speakers all exhibitions have English translation.
Beethoven's face is absolutely everywhere in Bonn, Germany. The house where he grew up is on a charming street in the city centre. Doesn't get too busy at the moment 2022- maybe because people are not travelling that much at the moment due to Covid?. Purchase tickets and memorabilia on the other side of the road. Closes around 5 p.m.
Visiting the house of the most famous Bonn citizen was great but left me with mixed feelings. Getting to the house was quite easy, Bonn city has done a very good job on this, as signs can be followed from all around the city. You have to buy tickets in the museum shop located on the opposite side of the street, however this is apparently not a well known fact as many visitors go straight to the house entrance. Backpacks are not allowed inside you can lock in in the basement of the museum shop free of charge, only deposit needed and photography is forbidden inside the house, however no reason was provided when asked why. Audio guide in 6 different languages was available in the store or via a downloadable audio app on the phone don't forget headphones. The house itself was relatively small, compact, easy to navigate through and beautifully maintained. All important items paintings, notes, musical instruments, letters and memorabilia were displayed however not all of them were original and did not add much to the authenticity of the experience and through them you get to learn a lot about the composer's life. I feel it could be better organized as I didn't quite catch some of the milestones in Beethoven's life. I was a bit disappointed with the audio guide - the explanations were rather long most of them were 2 to 4 minutes long and maybe too detailed to the point it stopped being interesting to me for example looking at one small medallion and listening to nearly 3 minute explanations seemed a bit much. On a positive note - some of the explanations were accompanied by Beethoven music. Honestly I was personally happier with the written notes located in each room. There is a possibility to visit a very tiny garden and take a picture of the house from there. The museum store offers many interesting items to buy - from books and CD's to cups, postcards and music boxes - and the staff was very nice and friendly. Toilets were located in the basement next to the locker room. The 10 EUR price tag as entry fee is on the higher spectrum of the museum's entrance fees but I guess it's adequate to the experience. My experience was generally good, but details matter and there are a couple of them to be improved in my opinion. Visited in July 2022.
Super exciting and unbelievable experience to be visiting where Beethoven used to live and walk in his shoes. Tip is to download the app and enjoy the stories and music. Recommended for music lovers and suitable for families, couples, and solo
Small but fine. €10 per adult and €7 per kid, €19 for a family 2 adults+max 3 kids. Photos are not allowed inside.
Excellent experience, the house where a legend was born. It's very well kept, everything, every object has an explanation historical note if you will. You can also download an app which plays the music specific to the instrument Beethoven used. You aren't allowed to take photos inside the house but there is a garden where you can click few photos. A must visit for everyone. For students the rates are a bit lower
Highly recommend if you are a fan of classical music and especially of ludwig. His old house is full of memories floating with his past belongings and letters.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
I found popular photo of Beethoven and his musical instruments, and his background stories there. It was also touching to sit down, look out through the window to the backyard in a sunny day while listening to Beethoven‘s symphony for a while.Wait timeUp to 10 minReservation recommendedNo
