Ludwig von Beethoven was born here in 1770; not in the impressive part facing the street, but in the much simpler part at the back. The house was acquired by 12 wealthy residents in 1889 and converted into a museum, which houses priceless treasures including the original, hand-written manuscripts for the the Moonlight Sonata, Pastoral Symphony and Coriolan Overture. Visitors can also admire the great composer's instruments, including a viola, quartet instruments, a grand piano and a console from Remigiuskirche's organ.
