Beethovenhaus is devoted to depicting the life of Ludwig von Beethoven (1770-1827), one of the world's greatest and most influential composers, who was a key figure in the transition between the Classical and Romantic eras. It is the birthplace of Beethoven who spent his early years in Bonn until he left for Vienna in 1792. The museum covers Beethoven’s entire life with exhibitions of original manuscripts and items used by him, including some hearing pipes and his last grand piano.

A comprehensive English pamphlet is available at no charge, and the museum staff is generally quite friendly. Museum hours are Monday to Saturday, 10 am to 5 pm, closing at 6 pm from April to October, and year-round on Sunday, 11 am to 4 pm.
