Traveler reviews
Sean H
★★★★★a year agoThis is a beautiful gem of a museum in the heart of Salzburg that I stumbled upon by accident. The staff were lovely and very accommodating. The exhibits are potent and moving.
Wolfgang Pree
★★★★★Edited 4 years agoAn excellent research center about the works and life of Stefan Zweig whose warnings about the catastrophic effects of discrimination, loss of individual freedom, as well as instability of the financial system (inflation, etc) have become so relevant again in our times.
