Take a fascinating look at the life and work of Ludwig van Beethoven in this free touring exhibition created by DHL and Beethoven-Haus Bonn.
Bringing together original exhibit pieces and high-quality facsimile reproductions, this is an opportunity to get even closer to the iconic composer and his creative process.
Among the rare items on display are one of Beethoven’s ear trumpets and an original print from Andy Warhol’s famous 1987 Beethoven Series, while interactive multimedia exhibits help bring the man and his influence on contemporary culture to life. And you can take a little piece home with you, by creating your own personalised wax seal in the style of Beethoven's own.
