The Liszt-Haus in Weimar is the historic residence where the famous Hungarian composer Franz Liszt lived and worked in the last years of his life. The house, located next to the Park an der Ilm, within the former courtyard of the Master of the Horse (royal stables), is a fascinating place for lovers of classical music and the cultural history of the 19th century.
The building, which has now been converted into a monographic museum, preserves authentically furnished rooms with original furniture, sheet music, letters, portraits, and Liszt's own Bechstein piano. Here, the composer received students, composed, and held small private concerts, making this place one of the cradles of late European musical Romanticism.
A visit to the Liszt-Haus offers an intimate insight into Liszt's daily life, his lifestyle, and his cultural influence in Weimar, where he played a key role in the city's musical life and contributed to its reputation as an international artistic center.
Set in an intimate and evocative atmosphere, the house museum is an essential stop for those visiting Weimar in the footsteps of the great figures of Classicism and Romanticism. It is conveniently accessible on foot from the historic center and close to other iconic places in the city.
