The actual information and displays were decent but the text font in the descriptions for everything was small. (I have low vision so I had to take photos of most of the text in order to read it - and there’s a LOT.) They have an audio guide option but you need the Internet to connect. There was bad cell reception inside and never saw their WiFi signal show up, so I couldn’t do the audio guide. I told the staff the WiFi wasn’t working and they said something about it only being on the 2nd floor? Staff weren’t very friendly or helpful so maybe there was a separate audio guide you could purchase but I didn’t hear anything about it

Museum of significance, as the home and birthplace of Mozart (until they got enough money to move out). It's an older building, so plenty of stairs. Unknown if they have a lift for the disabled. It can get fairly busy (we went on a Monday in July), but these hotspots always do. Some people balk at the cost, but if you have the Salzburg card and do a few things (including his later home), then the prices are reasonable. If not, then yes it is expensive. I'm not well versed in classic music and possess zero musical ability, but I did find it of interest to see his birthplace and how he lived. Particularly his wider family.

If you're a fan of Mozart and history this is a must stop. Not too expensive a ticket price and plenty to learn about the Mozart Family if you're up for learning and not just Instagram posting. Some reviews complain about the cost, but most museums the cost (hopefully) goes into maintaining such places for future generations. I arrived with close to two hours left before the museum closed and with reading about the various pieces didn't quite have enough time to properly read the lower level section of the house. A more casual visitor could definitely do tho within that time frame.

It's a beautiful place to visit and the area around this town. One can just walk around, also on the other side of the road there is a nice river, cool the walk by it with markets and breeze. Mozart was a great person who lived on this earth. Must visit to this place.

I'm wondering how exactly to start this review. It is definitely a place that must be visited and experienced; Mozart is a genius who should be studied both as a person and as a composer and artist. However, this is certainly not the place where that can happen. There are many aspects, such as the atmosphere and the information provided, that the organizers could improve upon. Something that confused me a bit was that the overall presentation of his life and work seemed to end abruptly – I felt the need for more information and orientation.
