Description
The composer's living quarters were restored in 2015. There is a permanent exhibition about Brahms, particularly his time at Mürzzuschlag. He lived here, over the two years 1884 and 1885, for a total of nine months; during this time he composed his Symphony No. 4, and many songs.[1][2]
There are items and photographs relating to Brahms, and a grand piano owned by the composer. The exhibition describes the composer's circle of friends, some of whom visited him during his stay.[1]
