Figarohaus (Mozart Memorial Rooms) stands on Schulerstrasse which leads out of Stephansplatz. For three years, from 1784 to 1787, Mozart lived here with his wife and son on the first floor of this typical old Viennese house neat St. Stephen’s Cathedral. These were his happiest years, and it was here that he wrote “The Marrige of Figaro”. For a short while Beethoven was his pupil and it was while he was resident here that Mozart was appointed Imperial Chamber Composer. Mozart’s rooms in what was then called “Camesina House” have been set out as a permanent memorial. Visitors can see the room (With a fine stucco ceiling) where Mozart worked, pictures and prints, figurines, the original manuscript of “Ave verum” and the first German libretto of the “Marriage of Figaro”. The house where he died, Rauhensteingasse 8, no longer exists, his grave is in St Marx Cemetery.
