About Schubert Geburtshaus
The Schubert Birthplace in Vienna is a museum that is part of the Wien Museum. This building, which once went by the name "Zum roten Krebsen" (At the Red Crab), is where the composer Franz Schubert was born on January 31, 1797. His parents, a schoolteacher and a cook, lived in the apartment until 1801. Today, the exhibition on the upper floor documents the artist's life and musical development as well as his circle of friends. Among other things, you can see a pair of glasses Schubert wore, and view several portraits of the composer in one of the rooms.

Franz Schubert was born in a small apartment in this house in 1797. The museum, just like the apartment itself, is rather small and not wheelchair accessible. The top floor displays documents relating to the composer's life and work, while other rooms display paintings by the Austrian writer Adalbert Stifter.
