Händelhaus

Händelhaus Review

Handel's birthplace, the Händelhaus, is now a museum devoted to the composer. The entrance hall displays glass harmonicas and curious musical instruments perfected by Benjamin Franklin in the 1760s. Be sure to look for the small courtyard where Handel played as a child.
