Brahms-Haus

Johannes Brahms spent the summers of 1884 and 1885 in this house, nine months in all, and wrote his Fourth Symphony here. His restored living quarters now hold a permanent exhibition with photographs, personal items, a grand piano he owned, and the story of the friends who visited him. The house itself dates from the sixteenth century and has a courtyard arcade and a stuccoed ceiling from the early 1700s.
