Richard-Wagner-Stätten Graupa

The Richard Wagner Museum in Graupa occupies two buildings: the historic Lohengrinhaus and an 18th-century hunting lodge with exhibitions about the composer. Both structures display items and information about Wagner's life and work at this location.

In summer 1846, Richard Wagner stayed in Graupa for three months and composed major sections of his opera Lohengrin there. This period was crucial for the creation of one of his most famous works.

The site displays original manuscripts and furnished rooms that show Wagner's impact on German opera and music. Visitors can see how the composer lived and worked during his time here.

The site is accessible via walking trails and offers information at several points along the way. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes since the surroundings invite exploration.

The site connects to the world's largest Wagner monument and can be explored via hiking trails. This combination makes Graupa a special destination for those interested in the composer.
