Beautiful music, beautiful couples and wonderful venue.

Not bad, it’s just very small and the information is limited. It’s almost exclusively focused on Clara. If you don’t read German, you have to scan QR codes to get an English version. There’s an interactive sound room that’s good for children. If you don’t have much time in Leipzig, I’d choose a different museum.

Pretty underwhelming compared to other composer house museums in Europe. Information was limited and not presented in a logical way. There were no instruments actually belonging to the musicians on display. The listening library was the saving grace, however it was rather noisy due to the museum sharing space with a school. There were kids rehearsing choir in part of the museum so it was hard to focus on the listening examples. Not recommended unless you're a big fan of the Schumann couple.
