Anton Bruckner Home - Vienna

Anton Bruckner's home is on Prinz-Eugen-Straße at the Upper Belvedere Palace in Vienna, Austria. The famed composer moved to Vienna in 1868 and first worked at the Vienna Conservatory, then at the Vienna University in 1875.  Throughout his time here he worked on various symphonies, masses, choral works and chamber works.  By the early 1890's, in failing health, he was given his room here, at the Upper Belvedere Palace, for free by Emperor Franz Josef. It was among many rewards and honors given to him in the last years of his life. He would continue living here and working on his 9th Symphony up until the day he died, October 11th, 1896. The Symphony's finale would remain unfinished.
