Richard-Wagner-Museum, Classical music museum in Tribschen, Switzerland.

The Richard Wagner Museum occupies a villa on Lake Lucerne's shore, featuring exhibitions of photographs, manuscripts, and personal items from the composer's life.

Between 1866 and 1872, Richard Wagner resided in this villa, completing several operas including Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg and working on Götterdämmerung.

The museum displays Wagner's 1858 Erard grand piano in the salon, where regular concerts maintain the musical tradition of this historical residence.

Visitors can access the museum from Tuesday to Sunday between 11:00 and 17:00, with an entrance fee of 8 Swiss francs for adults.

On December 25, 1870, Wagner conducted the first performance of Siegfried Idyll on the villa's staircase as a birthday gift for his wife Cosima.
