The Mendelssohn House in Leipzig is the only authentically preserved residence of the great composer, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy.
Originally built in 1844, and occupied by the composer and his family from 1845, the house has been restored according to the original plans and furnished in the late Biedermeier style popular at the time.
In his study and music salon are personal belongings, sheet music, and water color paintings by Mendelssohn, as well as documents and displays relating to his life and work.
