Beethoven Sterbehaus

Beethoven’s Final Residence
Relief at location of Beethoven's last residence

Vienna’s Schwarzspanierhaus enjoys a dark entry in the encyclopaedia of music history. This is the former location of the home of Ludwig van Beethoven, where he passed away in 1827.

Original house no longer exists
…demolished in the early 1900s
A plaque and relief on the new building recall the importance of the site




Beethoven-Sterbehaus (Schwarzspanierhaus), 9., Schwarzspanierstraße 15.

In dem Haus, das bis 1903/1904 an dieser Stelle stand (Abbruchgenehmigung von 12. Mai 1903), starb Ludwig van Beethoven am 26. März 1827 (Gedenktafel). Am 29. März wurde in der Alser Kirche die Totenfeier gehalten.
