Bach House Eisenach
Bachhaus Eisenach
The Bach Museum in the city where Bach was born, with live performances on period instruments every hour and about 250 original objects.
Johann Sebastian Bach was born in Eisenach in 1685. The museum combines an old house with modern galleries and displays his life, family and works, including autograph scores. The most popular feature is the live demonstration of the harpsichord and organ, held about once an hour, and you can also sit in the 'music bubble' chairs to listen to the works. Admission is about 12 euros. Combine it with a visit to the Wartburg on the same day, as it is about a 20-minute walk down from the castle.
Opening hours
