Storno House
Storno-ház
A Baroque mansion on the main square where King Matthias and Liszt both once stayed. It houses the art collection of the Storno family.
Storno House is the most striking residence on the east side of the main square. Its origins are medieval, but it was remodeled in the Baroque style in the 18th century. King Matthias stayed here during the winter of 1482-1483, and Liszt also gave concerts in the building. From the 19th century it belonged to the Storno family of restorers and art collectors, and the upper floors preserve their original furnishings, including furniture, paintings, ceramics, weapons and manuscripts on church restoration, offering a glimpse into the life of an artistic family. The ground floor houses an exhibition on Sopron's urban history. Tickets can be bundled with other city museum sites, including the Fire Watch Tower, and the museum is usually closed on Mondays.
