The Museum in the Manor House


The Museum in the Manor House har been kept very much like it was when it was opened in 1952 by Victoria Bachke. This part can only be visited with one of the museum guides. The well-preserved interiors from the 1860s and -70s are the setting for a chronological tour of parts of the European classical music history. The various rooms are named after famous composers, and the guide demonstrates a selection of keyboard instruments with music appropriate for that time.

This building is only available from April to October due to climatic conditions.

The Museum in The Barn



The Museum in the Barn opened in 1999 and presents some of the many various phenomena of music history as the development of the public musical life through the musical societies, the private music making in the homes of the middle- and upper classes in the 1800s, the introduction of the new era with the invention of the piano 300 years ago, the growth of jazz in the 1920s and -30s and the first decades of rock- and pop music.

Further, the exhibition demonstrates how sound is made, even up to the electronic instruments of today.
