From Joseph Haydn to Franz Liszt, music is baked right into Eisenstadt's history, and it plays a central role to this day. The town's flair and heritage are perfectly captured along the memorable Haydn Trail, a lively tour of the world-famous composer's life. His music will never sound the same again.
Join us on a Haydn tour...
You don't know Haydn till you've walked the Haydn Trail. This unforgettable tour of the composer's life doubles as an intimate introduction to picturesque Eisenstadt, just 40 minutes south of
Vienna.
From the Haydn Church, you'll arrive at Haydn's house, where work and private life merged. Then comes the historic downtown, with its Baroque homes, city hall and memorial to victims of the Black Plague. Next it's
Esterházy Palace, home to Haydn Hall -- one of the most beautiful concert halls in the world.
And no Haydn tour is complete without a stop at the Haydn Mausoleum, which holds his mortal remains; you'll never forget the story of Haydn's head, which disappeared and was returned to his body only a few decades ago.
Two tours available, approximately 90 minutes or 180 minutes.
