Richard Strauss Villa

Richard Strauss Villa Review

On the eastern edge of Garmisch, at the end of Zöppritzstrasse, stands the home of composer Richard Strauss, who lived here until his death in 1949. It's the center of activity during the Richard-Strauss-Tage, an annual music festival held in mid-June that features concerts and lectures on the town's most famous son. Displays are audiovisual, and each day at 10, noon, 2, and 4 samples of Strauss's works are played in the concert hall.
