Mendelssohn-Haus, House museum in Leipzig, Germany

Felix Mendelssohn lived in this Leipzig residence from 1845 until his death in 1847, during which time he completed his oratorio Elijah.

The museum includes a music salon where chamber concerts take place, continuing the tradition of musical gatherings established by Mendelssohn himself.

The Mendelssohn-Haus welcomes visitors daily from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, offering guided tours, exhibitions, and an interactive conducting experience called Effektorium.
