Visit

  • Opening times are from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day. Guided tours can also be booked outside opening times.
  • We recommend to allow 75 minutes for your visit.
  • Once an hour, there is a little 20-minute Bach concert on Baroque keyboard instruments in the concert hall in the historic Bach House (included in all ticket prices). Music is played on baroque instruments: two house organs, a clavichord, the Silbermann spinet and a harpsichord.
  • The Marc Aurel Hett Hall, which opened in 2025 and features an exhibition on the development of wind instruments, is located somewhat secluded in the new building. If you are interested, please ask at the reception desk and we will guide you into the hall. Tours of this room are offered every Sunday at around 2:30 p.m., just after the little concert at 2 p.m. (included in the admission price).
  • Audio stations and the multimedia “Walkable Composition” means that it is easy to loose track of time – visitors can have their ticket stamped at the counter in the evenings and are free to come back again the next day.
  • All texts are in German and English (except Marc Aurel Hett Hall); printed museum guides can also be purchased in French and Japanese.
  • The modern part of the Museum has access for the disabled. In the old building, only the ground floor can be accessed by wheelchair.
  • The Museum also has a small Baroque garden and the “Café Kantate” serving cakes and gateaux from a patisserie in Eisenach.
