Silent Night Museum Hallein and Gruber's Burial Site

Gruber lived 28 years in Hallein serving as director of choral music, singer and organist. His grave is located near the parish church and in front of the building in which he lived. A central theme of Gruber's life was music and the creation of music. Memorial plaques at the grave-site and by his former home commemorate his musical contributions.

Life and work of the composer
In a wonderful, new atmosphere, the work of the composer of the song by Franz Xaver Gruber is presented. The barrier-free museum is located in the former sacristan and choirmaster house, where Franz Xaver Gruber lived and worked for 28 years. The focus is also on the genesis and dissemination history of "Silent Night! Holy Night!".

Open daily from 9 AM to 5 PM.
