Gustav Mahler Museum

The Gustav Mahler Museum spans 300 square meters within a historic building, presenting exhibitions about the life and compositions of the classical composer.

The museum, inaugurated in May 2018, focuses on Mahler's period as chief conductor of Hamburg operas from 1891 to 1897.

The collection includes concert advertising placards, photographs, musical scores, and personal artifacts that document Mahler's influence on classical music.

The museum incorporates multimedia technology throughout its exhibitions to compensate for the limited number of original Mahler artifacts available for display.

Visitors can listen to Mahler's compositions played on a Welte-Mignon player piano, which reproduces the exact sound intended by the composer.
